From: A new strategy for better genome assembly from very short reads
The effect of the threshold used for comparative assemblies on the accuracy of reliable contigs. Using simulated short read datasets from 41 genomes which take at least three genomes as references, comparative assemblies are produced by AMOScmp. (a) for different thresholds, different sets of reliable A-contigs are obtained and their accuracies are shown using the Box-and-whisker plots. (b) Correspondingly, proportions of the DBG contigs extended by reliable A-contigs are shown using the Box-and-whisker plots.
