Performing a hybrid de novo assembly on the cloud calculation engine

In this tutorial, we will perform a hybrid de novo assembly based on both short and long reads on the Cloud Calculation Engine.

Download demonstration database: 
WGS_demo_database_for_Escherichia_coli

Demonstration database containing data for a set of 60 Escherichia coli isolates. This database uses publicly available next-generation sequence reads from the Sequence Read Archive (SRA). For each isolate, NGS reads were de novo assembled into genome sequences. wgMLST alleles were called using the assembly-based and assembly-free method.

Note that the downloaded database backup file (.bnbk) can be restored via the Restore database... functionality in the BIONUMERICS startup screen.
