Recently, Marcus et al. (Bioinformatics 30:3476–83,) proposed to use a compressed de Bruijn graph to describe the relationship between the genomes of many individuals/strains of the same or closely related species. They devised an time algorithm called splitMEM that constructs this graph directly (i.e., without using the uncompressed de Bruijn graph) based on a suffix tree, where n is the total length of the genomes and g is the length of the longest genome. Baier et al. (Bioinformatics 32:497–504,) improved their result. In this paper, we propose a new space-efficient representation of the compressed de Bruijn graph that adds the possibility to search for a pattern (e.g. an allele—a variant form of a gene) within the pan-genome. The ability to search within the pan-genome graph is of utmost importance and is a design goal of pan-genome data structures.
