AGC: Compact representation of assembled genomes
Abstract
High-quality sequence assembly is the ultimate representation of complete genetic information of an individual. Several ongoing pangenome projects are producing collections of high-quality assemblies of various species. Here, we show how to represent the sequenced genomes in 2-3 orders of magnitude smaller space, allowing easy and fast extraction of any contig or its part.
