Releases
2.9
Better assembly of very short sequences (e.g. plasmids or viruses). They vere often missed in previous versions.
New --nano-hq mode for ONT Guppy5+ and Q20 reads (3-5% error rate)
Optimized default parameters for HiFi (HPC error threshold 0.01 -> 0.001; increased min overlap)
Polishing improvements: reduced number of possible clusters of errors
Improvements in repeat detection algorithm to further limit a chance of (otherwise infrequent) misassemblies
Scaffolding is no longer performed by default (could be enabled with --scaffold)
Bam file input for the standalone polisher (same interface as for FASTA/Q)
Automatically selected minimum overlap up to 10k (was 5k)
Discontinued --plasmid option due to the improvements in short sequences assembly
--trestle and --subassemblies modes are now deprecated, and will be removed in the future versions
New --extra-params option to modify config-level parameters
Contig paths output in Gfa + number of reads supporting each link (RC tag)
Update to minimap 2.18
Several rare bug fixes/other improvements
