best assembler for the job?

[lskatz]

Hi, I was wondering what assembler the authors recommend before running Recycler. It seems like spades is recommended, but then I was also wondering what parameters you would recommend. Is there some set of parameters that, even though it might be worse for the chromosome, might be better for discovering the plasmid?

Also: Would you also recommend running spades with --plasmid as input for Recycler?
