          Abstract

          Summary: We present several recent improvements to minimap2, a versatile pairwise aligner for nucleotide sequences. Now minimap2 v2.22 can more accurately map long reads to highly repetitive regions and align through insertions or deletions up to 100kb by default, addressing major weakness in minimap2 v2.18 or earlier.
