This talk will illustrate
few Hybrid Approaches used for assembling data from multiple sequencing
platforms to form Hybrid Genome which allows one to correct for the biases and
errors of one platform with information from a complementary platform. Further,
it will also discuss the approach taken with the assembly of the Hydra vulgaris
genome which is a complex genome with a large repeat content.
