Assessing graph-based read mappers against a baseline approach highlights strengths and weaknesses of current methods

Abstract Background Graph-based reference genomes have become popular as they allow read mapping and follow-up analyses in settings where the exact haplotypes underlying a high-throughput sequencing experiment are not precisely known. Two recent papers show that mapping to graph-based reference geno...
