From: A new strategy for better genome assembly from very short reads

Figure 2

Using simulated short read datasets from 629 genomes, comparisons among four types of de novo assemblies which get contigs longer than 500 bp. (a) Box-and-whisker plots of accuracies for the four types of de novo assemblies. Accuracy is the proportion of bona fide contigs in a genome assembly (b) Comparisons among the four types of de novo assemblies in terms of the average length, the N50 size, the longest length and the proportion of genome length covered by bona fide contigs.
