length, but the most commonly used statistics are N50 and L50. To calcu-

the largest to the smallest. Their lengths are then summed up from the
largest contig (or scaffold) downward. N50 refers to the size of the contig
(or scaffold) at which the summed length becomes greater or equal to 50%
of the total assembly size. L50, on the other hand, refers to the smallest
