Files used to develop and test SLAG, Seeded Local Assembly of Genes

<p>This dataset consists of configuration files and results files involved in developing and testing SLAG, an iterative Perl pipeline to construct local assemblies seeded on query sequences.  SLAG is intended for situations where a full genome assembly is economically or technically infeasible, and thus it emphasizes methods that can deal with shallow read depth.  SLAG and its user-runnable test suite have been deposited at https://github.com/cfcrane/SLAG.  This Dryad repository contains files that were used in preparing a manuscript, "SLAG: A Program for Seeded Local Assembly of Genes in Complex Genomes", which has been submitted to Molecular Ecology Resources.  The repository is divided into sections for scripts, simulated reads, real reads, and benchmarking against two functionally similar programs, aTRAM2 and SRAssembler.</p>
