How we call those shreds in parameters, i mean will they come under 
SOLEXA_SETTINGS or someone else. I am interested in knowing shreds input 
parameters in this case, whether they will be sanger, solexa etc.

The sequence i am saying Reference sequence is actually  consensus sequence 
(unpadded fasta file) which i got after mapping solexa 75mers using MIRA3, 
still need to check missassemblies?
