dipspades1

Diploid genome assembler

Usage

dipspades [options] -o <output_dir>

Overview

dipspades is the main executable for the dipSPAdes software, a genome assembler designed for diploid genomes with a high heterozygosity rate. It assembles genomic reads given to it and places the resulting assembly in <output_dir>.

Options

Basic options

-o <output_dir>: directory to store all the resulting files (required)

--iontorrent: this flag is required for IonTorrent data

--test: runs dipSPAdes on toy dataset

-h/--help

prints this usage message
