# NextDenovo
NextDenovo is a string graph-based *de novo* assembler for long reads (CLR, ~~HiFi~~ and ONT). It uses a "correct-then-assemble" strategy similar to canu (no correction step for PacBio HiFi reads), but requires significantly less computing resources and storages. After assembly, the per-base accuracy is about 98-99.8%, to further improve single base accuracy, try [NextPolish](https://github.com/Nextomics/NextPolish).

We benchmarked NextDenovo against other assemblers using Oxford Nanopore long reads from [human](https://nextdenovo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/TEST2.html) and [Drosophila melanogaster](https://nextdenovo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/TEST4.html), and PacBio continuous long reads (CLR) from [Arabidopsis thaliana](https://nextdenovo.readthedocs.io/en/latest/TEST3.html). NextDenovo produces more contiguous assemblies with fewer contigs compared to the other tools. NextDenovo also shows a high assembly accurate level in terms of assembly consistency and single-base accuracy.

## Installation

* **REQUIREMENT**
	* [Python](https://www.python.org/download/releases/) (Support python 2 and 3):
		* [Paralleltask](https://github.com/moold/ParallelTask) `pip install paralleltask`

* **INSTALL**  

	click [here](https://github.com/Nextomics/NextDenovo/releases/latest/download/NextDenovo.tgz) or use the following command:   
	```sh
	wget https://github.com/Nextomics/NextDenovo/releases/latest/download/NextDenovo.tgz
	tar -vxzf NextDenovo.tgz && cd NextDenovo
	```   

	If you want to compile from the source, run:

	```sh
	git clone git@github.com:Nextomics/NextDenovo.git
	cd NextDenovo && make
	```

* **TEST**
