At a minimum, please specify a partition, the number of tasks and the walltime. For example, use '''gridOptions =  --partition=batch --ntasks=1 --cpus-per-task=4 --time=168:00:00 '''. The --mem option will be added automatically by the pipeline scripts.

where [options] need to be replaced by the options (command and arguments) you want to use. Other parameters of the job, such as the maximum wall clock time, maximum memory, the number of cores per node, and the job name need to be modified appropriately as well.  Please note that the Slurm headers (#SBATCH lines) are only for Canu's initial job.  The resource limits of all of the jobs that Canu spawns will be determined by what is defined in the gridOptions.

Program On

Sapelo2

Version

2.2

Author / Distributor

Canu

Description

"Canu is a fork of the Celera Assembler, designed for high-noise single-molecule sequencing (such as the PacBio RS II/Sequel or Oxford Nanopore MinION). " More details are at Canu's documentation.

Running Program

Version 2.2

To use this version, please load the module with

ml canu/2.2-GCCcore-11.2.0

or with

ml canu/2.2-GCCcore-11.3.0

When you invoke canu, please use the gridOptions to pass queueing system options for the jobs the canu pipeline submits. At a minimum, please specify a partition, the number of tasks and the walltime. For example, use gridOptions = --partition=batch --ntasks=1 --cpus-per-task=4 --time=168:00:00 . The --mem-per-cpu option will be added automatically by the pipeline scripts, but you can also add it if the pipeline is not able to estimate the memory needed correctly.


Here is an example of a shell script, sub.sh, to run Canu on the batch queue:

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --partition=batch
#SBATCH --job-name=canujobname
#SBATCH --ntasks=1
#SBATCH --time=1:00:00
#SBATCH --mem=10G

cd $SLURM_SUBMIT_DIR

ml canu/2.2-GCCcore-11.2.0

canu gridOptions=" --partition=batch --ntasks=1 --cpus-per-task=4 --time=168:00:00 " [options]

where [options] need to be replaced by the options (command and arguments) you want to use. Other parameters of the job, such as the maximum wall clock time, maximum memory, the number of cores per node, and the job name need to be modified appropriately as well. Please note that the Slurm headers (#SBATCH lines) are only for Canu's initial job. The resource limits of all of the jobs that Canu spawns will be determined by what is defined in the gridOptions.


To submit the job submission use the command:

sbatch ./sub.sh

               -pacbio-hifi] file1 file2 ...

example: canu -d run1 -p godzilla genomeSize=1g -nanopore-raw reads/*.fasta.gz 


  To restrict canu to only a specific stage, use:
    -haplotype     - generate haplotype-specific reads
    -correct       - generate corrected reads
    -trim          - generate trimmed reads
    -assemble      - generate an assembly
    -trim-assemble - generate trimmed reads and then assemble them

  The assembly is computed in the -d <assembly-directory>, with output files named
  using the -p <assembly-prefix>.  This directory is created if needed.  It is not
  possible to run multiple assemblies in the same directory.

  The genome size should be your best guess of the haploid genome size of what is being
  assembled.  It is used primarily to estimate coverage in reads, NOT as the desired
  assembly size.  Fractional values are allowed: '4.7m' equals '4700k' equals '4700000'

  Some common options:
    useGrid=string
      - Run under grid control (true), locally (false), or set up for grid control
        but don't submit any jobs (remote)
    rawErrorRate=fraction-error
      - The allowed difference in an overlap between two raw uncorrected reads.  For lower
        quality reads, use a higher number.  The defaults are 0.300 for PacBio reads and
        0.500 for Nanopore reads.
    correctedErrorRate=fraction-error
      - The allowed difference in an overlap between two corrected reads.  Assemblies of
        low coverage or data with biological differences will benefit from a slight increase
        in this.  Defaults are 0.045 for PacBio reads and 0.144 for Nanopore reads.
    gridOptions=string
      - Pass string to the command used to submit jobs to the grid.  Can be used to set
        maximum run time limits.  Should NOT be used to set memory limits; Canu will do
        that for you.
    minReadLength=number
      - Ignore reads shorter than 'number' bases long.  Default: 1000.
    minOverlapLength=number
      - Ignore read-to-read overlaps shorter than 'number' bases long.  Default: 500.
  A full list of options can be printed with '-options'.  All options can be supplied in
  an optional sepc file with the -s option.

  For TrioCanu, haplotypes are specified with the -haplotype{NAME} option, with any
  number of haplotype-specific Illumina read files after.  The {NAME} of each haplotype
  is free text (but only letters and numbers, please).  For example:
    -haplotypeNANNY nanny/*gz
    -haplotypeBILLY billy1.fasta.gz billy2.fasta.gz

  Reads can be either FASTA or FASTQ format, uncompressed, or compressed with gz, bz2 or xz.

  Reads are specified by the technology they were generated with, and any processing performed.

    -trimmed

utgOvlErrorRate                    Overlaps at or below this error rate are used to trim reads
utgOvlFilter                       Filter overlaps based on expected kmers vs observed kmers
utgOvlFrequentMers                 Do not seed overlaps with these kmers
utgOvlHashBits                     Width of the kmer hash.  Width 22=1gb, 23=2gb, 24=4gb, 25=8gb.  Plus 10b per utgOvlHashBlockLength

utgOvlHashLoad                     Maximum hash table load.  If set too high, table lookups are inefficent; if too low, search overhead dominates run time; default 0.75
