Hairpin loop to hairpin loop: a full-length assembly of the ASFV genome using Oxford Nanopore long-read sequencing

Short-read assembly of the African swine fever virus (ASFV) genome is challenging due to the presence of inverted terminal repeat (ITR) and hairpin loop sequences, which often cause ambiguity in contig reconstruction. In this study, we employed Oxford Nanopore long-read sequencing to assemble a full...
