CulebrONT: a streamlined long reads multi-assembler pipeline for prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes | bioRxiv (www.biorxiv.org)
submitted by: Mensur Dlakic
Comparative evaluation of full-length isoform quantification from RNA-Seq | BMC Bioinformatics | Full Text (bmcbioinformatics.biomedcentral.com)
Here we use simulated benchmarking data that reflects many properties of real data, including polymorphisms, intron signal and non-uniform coverage, allowing for systematic comparative analyses of isoform quantification accuracy and its impact on differential expression analysis. Genome, transcriptome and pseudo alignment-based methods are included; and a simple approach is included as a baseline control.
