Small DNA-seq read files for tests

Question

[chefarov]

I am trying to find small dna-seq raw reads to experiment with some de-novo assembly techniques.

I was looking for a list on ncbi but it seems you have to search for a specific SRA instead.

Any ideas?

You can just search for lets say "e.coli" on the SRA page right?

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra/?term=e.coli

EDIT:

On the left of the page you can select some options like "DNA" and "Genome". Maybe you can use a mitogenome for your testing.

Hi! Did you find any tutorials on de novo assembly? Thanks!
