This repository contains scripts used in processing and updating the Gopherus agassizii reference genome to version 1.1
There are two Python scripts, Remove_and_split_contamination.py and Trim_Ns_fasta.py. Both require Python 2.7 because of the iteration syntax on lines 61-65 in Remove_and_split_contamination.py and lines 86-88 in Trim_Ns_fasta.py. In both cases, manually changing .next() to ._next_() should make the scripts Python 3 compatible.
For more details on how we used the scripts in our update to the G. agassizii reference, see our preprint:

If you use these scripts, please cite this paper. And if you run into any problems or have any questions, please open an Issue in our Github repo
The assembly is available at NCBI and the assembly and annotation are available on Harvard's Dataverse.
