Pre-built indexes
All indexes are for assemblies, not contigs. Unplaced or unlocalized sequences and alternate haplotype assemblies are excluded.
Some unzip programs cannot handle archives >2 GB. If you have problems downloading or unzipping a >2 GB index, try downloading in two parts.
Check .zip file integrity with MD5s.
Pre-built indexes are compatible with Bowtie versions 0.9.8 and later. For older indexes, please contact us.
