+SPAdes: a single-cell genome assembler
+
+SPAdes (St. Petersburg genome assembler) is intended for both standard
+isolates and single-cell MDA bacteria assemblies.
+
+SPAdes generates single-cell assemblies, providing information about
+genomes of uncultivatable bacteria that vastly exceeds what may be
+obtained via traditional metagenomics studies.
