| Important features | 1. MIRA 3 is able to perform true hybrid de novo assemblies using reads gathered through Sanger, 454 or Solexa sequencing technologies.
2. It assembles reads instead of a mix of shredded consensus sequence and reads.
3. MIRA 3 is for assembly of genomic data as well as assembly of EST data from one or multiple strains/organisms and MIRA searches EST SNPs for assembly of EST data from different strains (or organisms) and SNP detection within this assembly. |
