Platanus running problem

Hi, everyone,

I'm using Platanus to assemble a plant genome with a little high heterozygosity(about 0.8%). The software always give me the error report : K = 16, saving kmers from reads... Error(5): Kmer distribution exception!! Kmer distribution cannot be caluculated proper.

I have tried all the things I can do, but it still doesn't work. How can I solve this problem? Are there good examples or methods for heterozygous genome assembling?

You may want to contact the authors about this error since they may be able to help quickly.

Thx for your comment. I have contacted the author, but there is no reply.
