Description

@hoelzer

If a specialized virus metagenome assembly tool should be added to the pipeline to improve initial assemblies, this is something to check more closely

COBRA (Contig Overlap Based Re-Assembly) is a bioinformatics tool to get higher quality viral genomes assembled from metagenomes of short paired-end reads. COBRA was written in Python. COBRA has so far only been tested on assembled contigs from metaSPAdes, IDBA_UD, and MEGAHIT.
