Question: (Closed) Length of reads in a RNAseq experiment

Should all the reads of my experiment be of the same length if I am going to perform a de novo assembly?

The raw data contained reads of the same length but after the trimming process by quality some of them are reduced. I would like to know if there are some effect in the downstream analysis with this reads. (The majority of the reads remain of the same length and only a few reads have been trimmed)

Thanks

Carlos Andrés.

Which tools do you plan to use?

I am going to use Rockhopper.

I am not familiar with that tool and I did not find it wrapped for Galaxy. It is probably best to ask this question of the tool developers (http://cs.wellesley.edu/~btjaden/Rockhopper/) or on a more general bioinformatics forum (https://www.biostars.org) for the best feedback/advice from those that use it.

I am going to close this question out as non-Galaxy related post.
