the default parameters, we tested an array of parameters andchose the best for those datasets, namely n = 10, c = 3 and ABYSSwith the options -E0 (Supplementary Material).

Trinity (ver. 2011-08-20) was run with the default parameters. Inparticular, the k-mer length of 25 could not be modified.

Potential poly-A tails after assembly were removed using thetrimEST program from the EMBOSS package (Rice et al., 2000)before alignment. Subsequently, predicted transfrags of the methodswere aligned against the genome using Blat (Kent, 2002).

The Cufflinks assemblies are those published by its authors.Reads per kilobase of exon model per million mapped reads

(RPKM), as defined by Mortazavi et al. (2008) expression valuesfor annotated genes have been computed by aligning reads againstannotated Ensembl 57 transcripts with RazerS (Weese et al., 2009),(see Supplementary Material).

3.3 MetricsIn all the following experiments, we focused on a simple set ofmetrics as used in (Robertson, 2010; Yassour, 2011): nucleotidesensitivity, nucleotide specificity, percentage of transcriptsassembled to 100% of their length and percentage of transcriptsassembled to 80% of their length. The Blat mappings of theassemblies were compared with the Ensembl annotations of thecorresponding species.

3.4 Comparing Oases to VelvetTo evaluate the added value of the topology resolution within eachloci, we compared the Oases contigs from the Velvet assemblieswhich they are built from. Table 1 shows how the Oases assembliessignificantly improve on the Velvet assemblies. This confirms theintuition that in the presence of alternative splicing and dynamicexpression levels, the assembly is broken by breaks in the graph,which can be resolved by topological analysis and adapted errorcorrection as described in the Methods section.

As an example, the percentage cutoff for local edge removal wasmodulated (see Supplementary Table S1). These results show howdynamic filters improve the quality of the assembly.

3.5 Impact of k-mer lengthsOne of the major parameters in de Bruijn graph assemblers isthe hash length, or k-mer length. Comparing single-k assemblies

performed by Oases, it is possible to observe that this parameteris crucial in RNA-seq assembly. Figure 2 shows how the k-merlength is closely related to the expression level of the transcriptsbeing assembled. As expected, the assemblies with longer k-valuesperform best on high expression genes, but poorly on low expressiongenes. However, short k-mer assemblies have the disadvantage ofintroducing misassemblies, as shown in Supplementary Table S7.

3.6 Impact of merging assembliesIn addition, Figure 2 shows the same statistics for the mergedassembly by Oases-M, which is significantly superior to each of theindividual values. This result illustrates how the different assembliesdo not completely overlap. Further, Supplementary Figure S2 showshow each single k-mer assembly resolved transcripts at differentexpression levels.

We compared merging different intervals of k-mers (seeSupplementary Material). The wider the interval, the better theresults. To determine bounds on this interval we arbitrarily boundedon the low values with 19, on the assumption that smaller k-mersare very likely to be unspecific for mammalian genomes (Whitefordet al., 2005). In theory, on the upper end, all the k-mer values (up toread length) could be used. To avoid wasting resources, we measuredthe added value of each new assembly (see Supplementary Material).As expected, marginal gains progressively diminish and this metriccould be used to determine how large a spectrum of k-mers to use.We also investigated which kMERGE should be used and we foundthat kMERGE= 27 works well with little difference for higher values(see Supplementary Table S4) and is therefore used for all analysesin the article.

3.7 Comparing Oases to other RNA-seq de novoassemblers

Oases-M was compared with existing RNA-seq de novo assemblers,transABySS (Robertson et al., 2010) and Trinity (Yassour et al.,2011). The previous human dataset and a mouse dataset were used

Transcripts coveringthe complete coding sequence of the homologue from A. lyrata or A. thaliana, respectively, were identified and counted. The maximum number(741) of complete transcripts was identified for coverage cutoff seven and k-mer size 41 while the lowest (70) number of complete transcriptswas identified for coverage cutoff 19 and k-mer size 63.

in assemblies that used one k-mer size. 392 of thesesequences were assembled using exactly one parametercombination. Similarly, for P. cheesemanii the success ofgene assembly varied greatly with chosen parametervalues. 173 genes were assembled with all 19 coverage

cutoffs but only 18 with all 20 k-mer sizes. 445 geneswere only completely assembled with one coverage cutoffand 495 genes were only completely assembled with onek-mer. 284 of these genes were assembled with exactlyone parameter combination.

Figure 1 Number of complete transcripts identified in different assemblies of P. fastigiatum reads. 380 different assemblies were madeusing ABySS [25,26] and a combination of (i) coverage cutoffs between 2 and 20 and (ii) k-mer sizes between 25 and 63. Transcripts coveringthe complete coding sequence of the homologue from A. lyrata or A. thaliana, respectively, were identified and counted. The maximum number(741) of complete transcripts was identified for coverage cutoff seven and k-mer size 41 while the lowest (70) number of complete transcriptswas identified for coverage cutoff 19 and k-mer size 63.

Conclusions

1/12/13 K-INBRE Bioinformatics Core Training and Education Resource 27

1) Metrics based on contiguity suggest that many of the Illumina assemblies are highly contiguous compared to recent de novo plant transcriptomes

2) Metrics based on OHR suggest the assembly is accurate and the multi-k-mer method and clustering steps are improving the quality of the assembly

3) 454 data appears to have been less cost efficient than the Illumina data (in terms of all metrics accept cumulative length of assembly)
