http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmcloser/
Software that fills and closes the gaps present in scaffold assemblies, especially those generated by the de novo assembly of whole genomes with next-generation sequencing (NGS) reads. Unlike other gap-closing tools that use only NGS reads, GMcloser uses preassembled contig sets or long read sets as the sequences to close gaps and uses paired-end (PE) reads and a likelihood-based algorithm to improve the accuracy and efficiency of gap closure. The efficiency of gap closure can be increased by successive treatments with different contig sets.

https://www.thermofisher.com/order/catalog/product/4474950
A software that gives the user the ability to basecall, trim, display, edit, and print data for the entire line of capillary DNA sequencing instruments for data analysis and quality control. This software benefits from being able to obtain longer read lengths, greater accuracy on the 5' end, and the ability to filter out low-quality sequence ends.
Proper citation: Sequencing Analysis Software (RRID:SCR_000718) Copy
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ngs-toolbox/
A collection of simple Perl scripts adressed to scientists doing research that bases on high throughput genomic/transcriptomic data. It does not require any bioinformatic expertise. The scripts perform fundamental processing steps like sorting sequences by TAGs, FASTQ to FASTA conversion, filtering and counting of redundant sequences, individually adjustable FASTQ quality filtering or basic analyses like base count and analysis of sequence length distribution.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/operasf/
A sequence assembly software program that uses information from paired-end reads to optimally order and orient contigs assembled from shotgun-sequencing reads.
Proper citation: Opera (RRID:SCR_000665) Copy
Software for short-read mapping to accurately map reads from the next-generation sequencing technology. It can map reads with or without error probability information (quality scores) and supports paired-end reads or bisulfite-treated reads mapping. There is no limitaions on read widths or number of mismatches. RMAP can now map more than 8 million reads in an hour at full sensitivity to 2 mismatches.
