How can we get names of reads per contig with IDBA-ud?

Question

[j-blanchard]

Hi everyone,

I am using IDBA-ud to assembly reads from an exome sequencing. I would like to access to the name of each read which compose a contig. Is there an option or a way to have this information?

Thank you very much.

You can map your reads to the contigs with e.g. bwa.

Of course but it would be faster if IDBA-ud give it directly. But if it doesn't I will have to do something like that, yes.
