Of course on the last version Bastien linked on the bord (3.1.15) it's working. By the way keep in mind that there is a misunderstandig. ascdc is a -CL parameter. try as first to use -CL:asdcd And please let me know what's your opinion, I'm using it too for EST. Do you? davide From: bio5yz Sent: Thursday, June 17, 2010 1:33 AM To: mira_talk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mira_talk] Re: minimum number of reads to join contigs Hi Bastien, My data is also experiencing assembly issues due to possible chimera sequences. Trying '-SK:ascdc' as a parameter though my MIRA3.0.5 install does not seem to recognize the flag. * Parameter section: '-SK' * unrecognised string or unexpected character: ascdc Which version is this function available? Thanks, Michael.

Don't know, try it out (but -SK:ascdc) and please report back your findings here, I'd be interested to know what you think of it. > PS: I swear, as soon as I get a final assembly I will stop to bother you! Uh oh ... something like a "final" assembly does not exist, especially not with EST data :-) B. -- You have received this mail because you are subscribed to the mira_talk mailing list.
