+  summary: A method for generating a consensus pseudohaploid genome sequence
+  about: Consensify is a method for generating a consensus pseudohaploid genome sequence with greatly reduced error rates compared to standard pseudohaploidisation. The method is described in full and tested in the associated publication (Barlow et al. (2020), Genes 11:50, doi 10.3390/genes11010050).
