QUAST-LG is an extension of QUAST intended for evaluating large-scale genome assemblies (up to mammalian-size).
Significant speedup of the tool was achieved by both use of new fast aligner (minimap2) and the refactoring of core QUAST alignment analyzing modules.
QUAST-LG also introduced new quality metrics and methods which should be useful when evaluating large eukaryotic assemblies:

• K-mer-based coompleteness and correctness
• Number of full and partial BUSCO genes (especially helpful in the reference-free mode)
• The concept of upper bound assembly (theoretical limits on the assembly completeness and contiguity for a given genome and set of reads)

QUAST-LG is distributed as a command-line tool within QUAST package since version 5.0.0.

To run QUAST in QUAST-LG mode you should just add --large option to your running command.

We benchmarked QUAST-LG on six eukaryotic datasets (yeast [2], worm [1], fruit fly [1], and human [2]) assembled by the leading genome assembly software.
You may find additional information about the results and the QUAST-LG project on the ISMB-2018 poster.

Below is the sample plot generated in QUAST-LG run on a human dataset (using Circos and Icarus software).
