What are the genomic sequencing analysis tools available on ODU clusters? And how do I get started with them? Any example code, workflow, dataset?
There are a few assembly software available on our cluster, such as SPAdes, Trinity. Most of these programs can use multiple cores but only run on a single node and require a lot of memory. You may want to use the himem SLURM partition and require an appropriate amount of RAM to run your real assembly worklaods. There is also hipmer on our cluster, but the results and accuracy may need to be tested against other methods before it is relied upon.
