CHSMiner: a GUI tool to identify chromosomal homologous segments
Background The identification of chromosomal homologous segments (CHS) within and between genomes is essential for comparative genomics. Various processes including insertion/deletion and inversion could cause the degeneration of CHSs. Results Here we present a Java software CHSMiner tha...Tags: CHSMiner, GUI, tool, identify, chromosomal, homologous, segments

SiLiX: implements an ultra-efficient algorithm for the clustering of homologous sequences
The software package SiLiX implements an ultra-efficient algorithm for the clustering of homologous sequences, based on single transitive links (single linkage) with alignment coverage constraints. SiLiX adopts a graph-theoretical framework to interpret similarity pairs as edges of a networ...Tags: SiLiX, ultra-efficient, algorithm, clustering, homologous, sequences, Bacteria

Mercator: Multiple Whole-Genome Orthology Map Construction
Whole-genome homology maps attempt to identify the evolutionary relationships between and within multiple genomes. The term "syntenic" is often used to describe regions of multiple genomes that are believed to have evolved from the same region in an ancestral genome. However, it has been pointed ...Tags: Mercator, Multiple, Whole-Genome, Orthology, Map, Construction, orthologous, homologous, paralogous, Synteny, ancetral

PyParanoid: a pipeline for rapid identification of homologous gene families in a set of genomes
PyParanoid is a pipeline for rapid identification of homologous gene families in a set of genomes - a central task of any comparative genomics analysis. The "gold standard" for identifying homologs is to use reciprocal best hits (RBHs) which depends on performing a all-vs-all sequence comparison,...Tags: PyParanoid, pipeline, rapid, identification, homologous, gene, families, set, genomes
