BFAST: an alignment tool for large scale genome resequencing.

PloS one - 11 Nov 2009

Homer Nils, Merriman Barry, Nelson Stanley F

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The new generation of massively parallel DNA sequencers, combined with the challenge of whole human genome resequencing, result in the need for rapid and accurate alignment of billions of short DNA sequence reads to a large reference genome. Speed is obviously of great importance, but...
