Read Merging Options

Hello,

I was wondering which software solution everyone is using to merge forward and reverse strands into one strand. PandaSeq (PAired-eND Assembler for DNA sequences) seems to be one option.

Thanks!

I recommend BBMerge from BBMap suite. There is also FLASH, fastq-join from EA utils etc.

Small nitpick. What you are describing is read merging, not sequence assembly.

Thanks, genomax. I revised my question title.
