Scripts used to generate results for the TrioBinning assembly paper. The data from that paper is available here.
The trio binning approach will be incorporated into Canu as a module in an upcoming release. If you are assembling a new trio dataset, see the Canu documentation for more information on how to run it.
Requires BioPython. Includes canu as a sub-module dependency.
These scripts should only be used if you are interesting in reproducing the results in the TrioBinning paper exactly. They are not optimized and are slow to run (classifying approximately 1000/reads per minute on a single CPU). There is an example script (classifyReads.sh and input.fofn) which show how to run classification in parallel on an SGE grid but must be submitted by the user and updated for user environment.
Example classifying an ecoli genome is in example/example.sh. It will download data for two E. coli strains and generate a binned assembly as well as a combined assembly for comparison.
The input for k-mer counting must be fasta formatted. If you have a fastq file you can run
zcat $fastq | awk -v name=$name 'BEGIN {num=0} {if (NR%2000000==1) {num+=1; print ">"name"."num} } {if (NR%4==2) print $1"N"}' > $name.fa
The shell script also has comments along the way but a brief outline of the steps:
- Count k-mers for both parents
- Subtract k-mers for each parent from the other to make two parent-specific k-mer sets
- Dump k-mers within good part of the distribution of each parent (plotting the counts) and excluding low-count (typically <10) and high count (typically > 100) copy k-mers
- Classify reads with provided python script
- Get fasta sets for each haplotype based on output of python script
- Generate assemblies.
The example assembles both E. coli strains in combination and separately. As an example, aligning to the K12 reference with MUMmer gives the following stats:

The result on the left is the combined assembly, fragmented into >400 contigs and only having 98.8% identity to the reference. In contrast, the haplotyped assembly has 1 contig covering the genome and is >99.99% identity.
