Several de novo assembly algorithms based on de-Bruijn graphs (EULER-SR [1] and Velvet [2]), hash-extension (VCAKE) [3], overlap layout (EDENA) [4] and for paired-end reads (ALLPATHS) [5] have been recently developed.
The classical approaches for WGS de novo assembly have three steps: overlap, layout and consensus (OLC).
Like most other OLC assemblers, Newbler stops extending contigs when it cannot resolve branches in the overlap layout graph.
These long assembled sequences were further taken for redundancy removal and assembling using approaches based on overlap layout consensus and compositional similarity based redundancy crunching.
Application of the aforementioned MaSuRCA filtering procedures for jumping libraries was applied and yielded ∼4.5 million distinct mapped read pairs for downstream overlap layout consensus assembly.
The conventional Overlap Layout Consensus (OLC) strategy has been one of the most successful paradigms for assembling long Sanger-based reads.

Multiple strategies have been used for this problem, including greedy graph-based algorithms, deBruijn graphs, and the overlap-layout-consensus approach.
Among them, Greedy-extension is the implementation of string-based method, while De Bruijn graph and overlap-layout-consensus (OLC) are two different graph-based approaches.
Contingent upon how the overlap relation is represented in these graphs, two dominant assembly paradigms have emerged: overlap-layout-consensus (OLC) and sequencing-by-hybridization (SBH).
What deserves to be mentioned is that Edena, as an assembler based on the overlap-layout-consensus algorithm (OLC) [16], had a quite surpassing performance on various datasets.
Considering the computational time, maximum random access memory (RAM) occupancy, assembly accuracy and integrity, our study indicate that string-based assemblers, overlap-layout-consensus (OLC) assemblers are well-suited for very short reads and longer reads of small genomes respectively.
