1. Ktrim: An extra-fast, accurate adapter trimmer for sequencing data. It processes FASTQ files from multiple lanes with minimal mismatching and over-trimming of adapters.2. BWA MEM: A reliable alignment tool (particularly for mapping ALT contigs...
The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) is a powerful bioinformatics program used to compare an input sequence (such as DNA, RNA, or protein sequences) against a database of sequences to find regions of similarity.
A while ago we posted a request for online resources on must-read papers in evolutionary biology, for a literature club. We received many answers in the meantime
Welcome to the course notes for STAT 414: Introduction to Probability Theory. These notes are designed and developed by Penn State's Department of Statistics and offered as open educational resources. These notes are free to use under...
The Protist 10,000 Genomes (P10K) Project aims to decipher the genome sequences and construct a comprehensive database resource containing over 10,000 species of protists, encompassing representatives from every major clade. Samples were collected...
