ABySS 1.3.4 (May 30, 2012)

ABySS

This release eliminates two sources of misassemblies, one in the path extension logic of SimpleGraph. Two, the default value of m, which is the minimum overlap required between two contigs to merge them, is increased from 30 to 50. This release also fixes various portability issues. A new script, abyss-fatoagp, is included to create an AGP file for GenBank submission.

likelihood of misassemblies.
* Integrate with SLURM. Thanks to Timothy Carlson.
