Metassembler: Merging and optimizing de novo genome assemblies

Alejandro Hernandez Wences, Michael Schatz

The paper introduces a metassembler algorithm that improves genome assembly quality by merging multiple assemblies and applies it to four genomes, showing consistent improvements in contiguity and quality.
