We have WGS PacBio sequenced data of environmental samples. As the data is huge, we don’t have any high spec machine to analyse it. Therefore, we thought we should try the Galaxy platform. Is there any specific tool in Galaxy that can do the assembly of PacBio WGS metagenomic reads? Or any other online tool / pipeline that may do it?
Looking for kind suggestions and help. Any leads?
Hi @ZAYNE
Yes, there is at least Flye. Find this and tools under the “Assembly” tool group at any of the UseGalaxy.* servers.
