Succinct dynamic de Bruijn graphs

The de Bruijn graph is one of the fundamental data structures for analysis of high throughput sequencing data. In order to be applicable to population-scale studies, it is essential to build and store the graph in a space- and time-efficient manner. In addition, due to the ever-changing nature of population studies, it has become essential to update the graph after construction, e.g. add and remove nodes and edges. Although there has been substantial effort on making the construction and storage of the graph efficient, there is a limited amount of work in building the graph in an efficient and mutable manner. Hence, most space efficient data structures require complete reconstruction of the graph in order to add or remove edges or nodes.
