Hi,

I have an account "on Main".I can't find Velvet for De  Novo genome assembly. However i have seen a toturial where it is noticed that we can use this software in Galaxy.

Can you help me to find it or another software which can permit to do De Novo assembly?

Thank you.

Thank you Martin Čech !

So for being able to use Velvet, i can't be in an account on Main, right?

Do you know if i can actually use another way in Galaxy on Main to perform a De Novo Assembly?

You can look into assembly section in the https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/ and you can look for Galaxies with assembly tools are https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/PublicGalaxyServers

I will check these links. I've just seen a a galaxy-based viral genome assembly pipeline clled virAmp. It is on this link:  http://viramp.com/

Do you know it? It seems to be easier for all the different steps of NGS data analysis.

There is a velvet assembler in the Tool Shed (which you can install on your own Galaxy, but it is not on Main) however it might be outdated - last updated on 2011-06-07

This is the link to it: https://toolshed.g2.bx.psu.edu/view/edward-kirton/velvet_toolsuite/4afe13ac23b6
(note that the link above does not install the velvet itself, only the Galaxy part of it, you still need to install velvet on the machine that will run it)

Assemblies are often resource-intense thus not many Galaxies offer their compute power publicly for free.
