Three good news on QUAST web-service and command line tool, which evaluates a quality of genome assemblies by computing various metrics and providing nice reports:
1. "QUAST: Quality Assessment Tool for Genome Assemblies" paper was accepted to Bioinformatics, now you can cite it in your papers using this BibTeX.
2. We've released QUAST 2.1 with new options, new speed-ups and improved indels counting.
3. QUAST was downloaded more than 1000 times with most of downloads from Russia and US.
