Phusion

Phusion

Phusion is a tool for de novo genome assembly. The assembler is modular in its design and uses the concept of mathematically defined repeats to find repeats and then uses another program, PHRAP as its assembly algorithm. The clustering of reads in pre-assembly step allows parallelization in the assembly stage.
