SHARCGS
Overview
SHARCGS stands for SHort read Assembler based on Robust Contig extension for Genome Sequencing.
SHARCGS is a de novo DNA assembly program that uses 25-40mers and deep sequence coverage to assemble genomes.
It was used for de novo sequencing from Solexa sequencing data of Helicobacter acinonychis.
