Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) for assembly validation

Validating genome assemblies submitted to GenBank using ANI based workflow Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) analysis is a useful tool to verify taxonomic identities in prokaryotic genomes. As part of the NCBI bacterial genome submission process, GenBank performs ANI analyses to compare submitted prokaryotic genome assemblies against reference data generated from type strains. You can learn … Continue reading Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) for assembly validation → The post Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) for assembly validation appeared first on NCBI Insights.
