Reported are assemblies using EULER-SR and Newbler, and the repeat graph as a reference for the optimal assembly.

Number of long contigs: The number of contigs greater than 500 bases.

Total length of long contigs: The sum of the length of all long contigs.

N50: The size of the smallest contig such that 50% of the length of the genome is contained in contigs of size N50 or greater.
