velvet 1.2.10 Nucleic acid sequence assembler for very short reads
Velvet is a de novo genomic assembler specially designed for short read sequencing technologies, such as Solexa or 454. Velvet currently takes in short read sequences, removes errors then produces high quality unique contigs. It then uses paired read information, if available, to retrieve the repeated areas between contigs.
