ccs

The CCS module parses the report file generated by ccs, a PacBio tool to generate highly accurate single-molecule consensus reads (HiFi Reads).

CCS takes multiple subreads of the same SMRTbell molecule and combines them using a statistical model to produce one highly accurate consensus sequence, also called HiFi read, with base quality values. This tool powers the Circular Consensus Sequencing workflow in SMRT Link.
