PGcloser: Fast Parallel Gap-Closing Tool Using Long-Reads or Contigs to Fill Gaps in Genomes

Assembled draft genomes usually contain many gaps because of the length limit of next-generation sequencing. Although many gap-closing tools have been developed, most of them still attempt to fill gaps on the basis of next-generation sequencing reads (always < 200 bp). Hence, the gap-filling effe...
