Citation: "... Fastq files were uploaded on the cloud-based ASP-IDNS®−5 analysis software (SmartGene). Analysis was made using [SmartGene's] ... Coronavirus pipeline .... Briefly, paired-end reads were generated and automatically filtered for low-quality sections. The resulting reads were mapped against the SARS-CoV-2 profiles and mutations were detected in a quantitative manner (% reads aligned). A consensus genome was generated using a 40% cut-off for base determination and a minimal number of 30 reads per position. ..."
