| Abstract | Background: The very large memory requirements for the construction of assembly graphs for de novo genome assembly limit current algorithms to super-computing environments. Methods: In this paper, we demonstrate that constructing a sparse assembly graph which stores only a small fraction of the observed k-mers as nodes and the links between these nodes allows the de novo assembly of even moderately-sized genomes (similar to 500 M) on a typical laptop computer. Results: We implement this sparse graph concept in a proof-of-principle software package, SparseAssembler, utilizing a new sparse k-mer graph structure evolved from the de Bruijn graph. We test our SparseAssembler with both simulated and real data, achieving similar to 90% memory savings and retaining high assembly accuracy, without sacrificing speed in comparison to existing de novo assemblers. |
