Could you share the raw data (assembly.fa illumina_.fq.gz hifi.fastq.gz) to me? so I can figure out why? In addition, you can map the illumina reads to the assembly, and then check the mapping coverage/quality of regions in the assembly with error kmers. If these regions do not have short reads mapped, nextPolish2 can not polish them because nextPolish2 requires short reads to validate kmes.
Thanks for your timely reply. Given the illumina_R*.fq.gz files and the hifi.fastq.gz file are too big (in total more than 100Gb in size), I am afraid I could not share the files with you. I will try to see how the short reads map the assembly and provide you with the results soon.

Dear the author,
I have checked the illumina reads and the error kmers by mapping the reads to the assembly. The results showed about 49% of error kmers have no reads covered and only about 0.05% error kmers have > 10 ×reads covered with MAQ> 10. Do the results indicate the reads are of low quality and can not be used to polish the assembly?
Thanks Bob

No, but the improvement will not be great. becasue nextPolish2 will keep ref. unchanged if it cannot confirm that the candidate kmer is correct to avoid potential overcorrections, BTW: You can use PCR-free library.
Thanks for your valuable advice, I have a question that if I could use MGI reads to correct the kmer? MGI reads are all sequenced using PCR-free library.
Best, Bob

yes
@bioinformaticspcj hello, did you resolved this problem now? i met the same problem.
Dear Dr. Hu:
I have tried the PCR free reads generated from T7 platform. However, I find the qv is still not improved a lot (only from 45.1644 to 45.3739). Could you give me some other suggestions?
Best, Bob

You need to first check the mapping coverage/quality in the regions of the assembly with error kmers. If these regions has no short reads mapped, NextPolish2 can not be used to improve QV.
@bioinformaticspcj did you got the QV by nextpolish2 or the merqury ?
Dear the authors,
Thanks for developing such a useful tool to polish the results of Hifiasm. I try to polish my Hifiasm's assembly (assembled with 40 × hifi reads) but found the QV of the polished assembly is as the same as the unpolished one. The species genome is highly heterozygous (rate: 0.77%). I do not know why? Could you be kind to help me?
The commands used are as follows: hifiasm -t 60 -o Pvat -l 2 -s 0.75 --h1 R1.fq.gz --h2 R2.fq.gz hifi.fastq.gz winnowmap -k 21 -t 100 -W repetitive_k21.txt -ax map-pb Pvat.hic.pctg.fa hifi.fastq.gz |samtools sort -@ 100 -o hifi.map.sort.bam - yak count -t 100 -o k21.yak -k 21 -b 37 <(zcat illumina.fq.gz) yak count -t 100 -o k31.yak -k 31 -b 37 <(zcat illumina_.fq.gz) nextPolish2 -r hifi.map.sort.bam Pvit.hic.p_ctg.fa k21.yak k31.yak -t 100 -o Pvat.hic.p_ctg.polished.v1.fa
The QV before polishing: 45.1437
The QV after polishing: 45.1451
Thanks again! Bob
