Trycycler

Introduction

Trycycler is a tool for generating consensus long-read assemblies for bacterial genomes. I.e. if you have multiple long-read assemblies for the same isolate, Trycycler can combine them into a single assembly that is better than any of your inputs.

Example job

Warning

Using #!/bin/sh -l as shebang in the slurm job script will cause the failure of some biocontainer modules. Please use #!/bin/bash instead.
