Great collaboration with @ukhsa.bsky.social #HPRU colleagues #nicolestoesser and the NEKSUS consortium of 9 NHS trusts in England

Overall, using R10.4.1, super-high accuracy basecalling and autocycler, we can reliably infer marker geens (MLST/ARGs etc) and feel that performance was good enough to drop Illumina sequencing for the NEKSUS study (more to follow in due course!)

Dot showed that overall, @rrwick.bsky.social Autocycler appears to outperform other long read assemblers and long read only assemblies are extremely accurate (median Q-score of 67). Long read polishing helps small amount + benefits from short read polishing are very small (only for worst assemblies)
