When to use

• bacterial genome assembly
• fungal genome assembly
• small eukaryotic genome assembly
• metagenome assembly
• transcriptome assembly
• plasmid sequence extraction
• hybrid assembly with PacBio/Nanopore

When not to use

• large genome assembly
• legacy small genome assembly with Velvet
