Figure 1. FALCON and FALCON-Unzip overview.

Figure 1

(a) The initial assembly is computed by FALCON, which error corrects the raw reads (not shown) and then assembles using a string graph of the read overlaps. The assembled contigs are further refined by FALCON-Unzip into the final set of contigs and haplotigs. (b) Phase heterozygous SNPs and group reads by haplotype (c) The phased reads are used to open up the haplotype-fused path and generate as output a set of primary contigs and associated haplotigs.
