I have pair end Fastq files from illumina (**Fast1.fastq** and **Fast2.fastq**). Now, how should I proceed further with de-novo genome assembly? I'am completely new to this field of assembling genome sequences? Which open-end tools can be used?

Please help me with the tools and tutorials which can be used for de-novo assembly of sequences.
If you download the BBMap package, there is a (hopefully) helpful guide in bbmap/docs/guides/PreprocessingGuide.txt

For isolate bacterial assembly with SPAdes, I recommend:

1) Adapter-trimming (you can do quality-trimming at the same time; I suggest a low cutoff, such as Q10)

2) Artificial contaminant filtering

3) Human contaminant removal

4) Error correction

5) Paired-read merging

...then assemble with SPAdes, using both the merged and unmerged reads.
