Summary: Mauve Contig Mover provides a new method for proposing the relative order of contigs that make up a draft genome based on comparison to a complete or draft reference genome. A novel application of the Mauve aligner and viewer provides an automated reordering algorithm coupled with a powerful drill-down display allowing detailed exploration of results.

• ALLMAPS: robust scaffold ordering based on multiple maps (2015, background): “One of the major steps in producing high quality genome assemblies is to use a variety of mapping information, including genetic maps, physical maps, cytological maps, optical maps, or synteny with related taxa to reconstruct the most likely chromosomal assemblies [4,6-10].”
