Hello sangita.sarma71991,

Please use the formatting bar (especially the code option) to present your post better. I've done it for you this time.

Also, you should add other information as well like

  • organism name

  • expected genome size

  • kmer used in assembly

  • total data that you have

  • coverage of the data

Thank you!
