RECORD: Reference-Assisted Genome Assembly for Closely Related Genomes

Figure 6

Comparison of the proposed approach (RECORD) with two state-of-the-art genome assemblers on real data. In this experiment, we compared assemblies resulting from various number of experimental reads to the assembly which is produced by Amos using all the experimental reads; that is, the target genome is the assembly produced by Amos using all the reads. In this case, the reference genome exhibits 99.7 percent identity with the result of Amos which is used as the gold standard. The diagrams follow the same structure as the one in Figure 4.
