GraphAligner: rapid and versatile sequence-to-graph alignment.Genome graphs can represent genetic variation and sequence uncertainty.  We present GraphAligner, a tool for aligning long reads to genome graphs.  Compared to the state-of-the-art tools, GraphAligner is 13x faster and uses 3x less memory.  When employing GraphAligner for error correction, we find it to be more than twice as accurate and over 12x faster than extant tools.Availability: Package manager: https://anaconda.org/bioconda/graphaligner and source code: https://github.com/maickrau/GraphAligner.
