TGS reads input #83

Can TGS reads, which are originally in FASTQ format generated from ONT (Oxford Nanopore Technologies) or HiFi (PacBio HiFi) sequencing, be converted to FASTA format and used as input for further analysis?

Yes, of course you can. We always can convert FASTQ to FASTA by simply dropping the quality data and modifying @ to > .
