Hi!

I have assembled my PacBio FASTQ reads with Canu. Now I would like to polish\correct the assembly by mapping these PacBio FASTQ reads on the assembly itself. I heard about Quiver in the SMRTanalysis pack, but I'm wondering if there is any alternative software.

Thanking you in advance for your help!
Canu uses alignments between pacbio reads to correct away most sequencing errors in raw reads. You can't do much better without using the signal information. To achieve high-quality consensus, Quiver is your only choice.
