Evaluation of GRCh38 and de novo haploid genome assemblies demonstrates the enduring quality of the reference assembly

Valerie A Schneider, Tina Graves Lindsay, Kerstin Howe, Nathan Bouk, Hsiu-Chuan Chen, Paul A. Kitts, Terence D Murphy, Kim D. Pruitt, Françoise Thibaud-Nissen, Derek Albracht, Robert S Fulton, Milinn Kremitzki, Vince Magrini, Chris Markovic, Sean McGrath, , Deanna M Church

This paper evaluates GRCh38 and de novo haploid assemblies, finding that GRCh38 remains superior for complex genomic regions and coding sequences despite improvements in newer assemblies.
