Minimap2
A versatile mapper / pairwise aligner for genomic and spliced nucleotide sequences
Minimap2 Plugin
Minimap2 is a versatile aligner suited to mapping Oxford Nanopore and PacBio reads to a reference sequence. Its uses include aligning long-read sequences, aligning sequences with error rates up to ~15%, performing splice-aware alignments, and performing alignment between two closely related species with divergence below ~15%.
Quick Start
Install the plugin by downloading the gplugin file and dragging it in to Geneious Prime or use the plugin manager in Geneious (under Tools - Plugins in the menu).
Once installed, run the plugin by selecting your reads and reference sequence then clicking on Align/Assemble - Map to Reference in the toolbar. Minimap2 is available as an option in the Algorithm drop-down menu.
