10x Genomics, Inc., a company focused on accelerating genomic discovery, today launched a new version of their de novo assembly solution to provide the fastest most cost-effective solution for creating high-quality de novo assemblies at scale for plants and animals. Enhancements to the Chromium™ de novo Assembly Solution, including the new version of the assembly software, Supernova 2.0, will be presented at the International Plant and Animal Genome Conference 2018 (PAGXXVI) being held from January 13th to 17th in San Diego, CA.
“The power of 10x Genomics' Chromium™ de novo Assembly Solution is that it is a simple process; a ‘cookbook’ library, standard low-cost sequencing, and push button assembly. Our one library yields long scaffolds for plants and insects, and 40 Mb scaffolds for mammals. We see this as the path to genome biology at scale,” says David Jaffe, Computational Biology Fellow and co-developer of Supernova at 10x Genomics.
