"Unitigs are high-confidence assembly fragments produced by for example ALLPATHS, Meraculous2 or the Celera Assembler. In contrast to contigs, unitigs don’t extend past any conflict in the underlying short read data, making them highly reliable." https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4609002/
Can we consider sequences within the contigs.fa file output by idba_ud to be “unitigs”?
Thank you, Joe
