MOTIVATION: Recent advances in long-read sequencing technologies have significantly facilitated the production of high-quality genome assembly. The telomere-to-telomere (T2T) gapless assembly has become the new golden standard of genome assembly efforts. Several recent efforts have claimed to produce T2T-level reference genomes. However, a universal standard is still missing to qualify a genome assembly to be at T2T standard. Traditional genome assembly assessment metrics (N50 and its derivatives) have no capacity in differentiating between nearly T2T assembly and the truly T2T assembly in continuity either globally or locally. Additionally, these metrics are independent of raw reads, making them inflated easily by artificial operations. Therefore, a gaplessness evaluation tool at single-nucleotide resolution to reflect true completeness is urgently needed in the era of complete genomes. RESULTS: Here, we present a tool called Genome Continuity Inspector (GCI), designed to assess genome assembly continuity at single-base resolution, and evaluate how close an assembly is to the T2T level. GCI utilizes multiple aligners to map long reads from various sequencing platforms back to the assembly. By incorporating curated mapping coverage of high-confidence read alignments, GCI identifies potential assembly issues. Meanwhile, it provides GCI scores that quantify overall assembly continuity on the whole genome or chromosome scales. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The open-source GCI code is freely available on Github (https://github.com/yeeus/GCI) under the MIT license.
