Mapping versus assembly. Two genes of P. falciparum 3D7 (red boxes) can be seen at the top. The horizontal green and blue lines are mapped sequencing reads from the IT clone. Red points in the reads are differences between the IT reads and the 3D7 reference. The lower part shows the de novo assembly of IT. The vertical bars are blast hits. The graphs are the coverage plots. Some regions of MSP3 in 3D7 are not covered by mapped IT reads. The de novo assembly has an insertion, indicated by the shape of the blast hit. Reads map even over this new assembled region

(a) Assembly with longer reads: Nearly identical overlap between reads enable the generation of the consensus. (b) Assembly with short reads, using de Bruijn graph: First the reads are index and the k-mer are stored in a hash table, including the k-mer and the frequency. With a k-mer length of 3 the k-mer TCG is non unique. Due to this non unique k-mer, the graph quite complicated. (c) Overview of typical pipeline for de novo assembly and annotation

Examples of different file formats. (a) fasta: Each sequence starts with a “>” and a name. Then the sequence is followed. (b) fastq: Similar to fasta, but with the quality coded in ASCII. (c) SAM format: First column is the name of the read. Next column is the mapping fl ag that can be used for querying a BAM file. Third and fourth, seven and eight columns are mapped to the reads and its mate, respectively. Column nine is the fragment size. The information how well the reads map is in column five and six, mapping quality and cigar string, respectively. The sequence and the quality of the reads are stored in column ten and eleven. The last column can have many different information, like an alignment score, other possible position to map repetitively. This depends on the mapper
