The Representational State Transfer (REST) sample clients are provided for a number of programming languages. For details of how to use these clients, download the client and run the program without any arguments.

For details see Environment setup for REST Web Services and Examples for Perl REST Web Services Clients pages.

Also known as Edit Distance, it is the number of transformations (deletions, insertions, or substitutions) required to transform a source string into the target one. For example, if the target term is “book” and the source is “back”, you will need to change the first “o” to “a” and the second “o” to “c”, which will give us a Levenshtein Distance of 2.Edit Distance is very easy to implement, and it is a popular challenge during code interviews

Additionally, some frameworks also support the Damerau-Levenshtein distance:

Damerau-Levenshtein distance

It is an extension to Levenshtein Distance, allowing one extra operation: Transposition of two adjacent characters:

Ex: TSAR to STAR

Damerau-Levenshtein distance = 1  (Switching S and T positions cost only one operation)

Levenshtein distance = 2  (Replace S by T and T by S)

This article introduces the usage of wgd.

Wgd cannot be installed directly with bioconda at present, so it is a little troublesome to install, because it depends on a lot of software. wgd depends on the following software

BLAST
MCL
MUSCLE/MAFFT/PRANK
PAML
PhyML/FastTree
i-ADHoRe

But the good news is that most of the software it depends on can be installed with bioconda

conda create -n wgd python=3.5 blast mcl muscle mafft prank paml fasttree cmake libpng mpi=1.0=mpich
conda activate wgd

Here mpi=1.0=mpich is selected, because i-adhore depends on mpich. If openmpi is installed, an error will appear while loading shared libraries: libmpi_cxx.so.40: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

After that, the installation is much simpler

git clone https://github.com/arzwa/wgd.git
cd wgd
pip install .
pip install git+https://github.com/arzwa/wgd.git
For i-ADHoRe, you need to register at http:// bioinformatics.psb.ugent.be /webtools/i-adhore/licensing/Agree to the license to download i-ADHoRe-3.0

Since my miniconda3 installed ~/opt/, the installation path is so~/opt/miniconda3/envs/wgd/

tar -zxvf i-adhore-3.0.01.tar.gz
cd i-adhore-3.0.01
mkdir -p build && cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/opt/miniconda3/envs/wgd/
make -j 4
make insatall

Take the sugarcane genome Saccharum spontaneum L as an example. The genome is 8-ploid with 32 chromosomes (2n = 4x8 = 32)

Download the tutorial for CDS and GFF annotation files

mkdir -p wgd_tutorial && cd wgd_tutorial
wget http://www.life.illinois.edu/ming/downloads/Spontaneum_genome/Sspon.v20190103.cds.fasta.gz
wget http://www.life.illinois.edu/ming/downloads/Spontaneum_genome/Sspon.v20190103.gff3.gz
gunzip *.gz

First conda activate wgdstart our analysis environment, and then start the analysis

Step 1 : Use to wgd mclidentify homologous genes in the genome

wgd mcl -n 20 --cds --mcl -s Sspon.v20190103.cds.fasta -o Sspon_cds.out

Step 2 : Use to wgd ksdbuild Ks distribution

wgd ksd --n_threads 80 Sspon_cds.out/Sspon.v20190103.cds.fasta.blast.tsv.mcl Sspon.v20190103.cds.fasta

Step 3 : If the quality of the genome is good, then wgd syncollinearity analysis can be used . It can help us find the collinearity block in the genome and the corresponding anchor point

wgd syn --feature gene --gene_attribute ID \
-ks wgd_ksd/Sspon.v20190103.cds.fasta.ks.tsv \
Sspon.v20190103.gff3 Sspon_cds.out/Sspon.v20190103.cds.fasta.blast.tsv.mcl

 For more reading - There are 9 sub-modules in WGD

• kde: KDE fitting to the Ks distribution
• ksd: Ks distribution construction
• mcl: BLASP comparison of All-vs-ALl + MCL classification analysis.
• mix: Hybrid modeling of Ks distribution.
• pre: preprocess the CDS file
• syn: Call I-ADHoRe 3.0 to use GFF files for collinearity analysis
• viz: draw histogram and density plot
• wf1: Ks standard analysis procedure of the whole genome paranome (paranome), call mcl, ksd and syn
• wf2: Ks standard analysis procedure of one-vs-one homologous gene (ortholog), call wcl and kSD

2. exec””

 syntax: exec "command";

3. Backticks “ or qx//

syntax: `command`;

syntax: qx/command/;

4. IPC::Open3

syntax: $output = open3(\*CHLD_IN, \*CHLD_OUT, \*CHLD_ERR, 'command arg1 arg2', 'optarg',...);

It is very similar to IPC::Open2 with the capability to capture all three file handles of the process, i.e., STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR. It can also be used with or without the shell. You can read about it more in the documentation: IPC::Open3.

$output = open3(my $o ut, my $in, 'command arg1 arg2');

OR without using the shell

$output = open3(my $out, my $in, 'command', 'arg1', 'arg2');

5.a2p

syntax: a2p [options] [awkscript]

There is a Perl utility known as a2p which translates awk command to Perl. It takes awk script as input and generates a comparable Perl script as the output. Suppose, you want to execute the following awk statement

awk '{$1 = ""; $2 = ""; print}' f1.txt

This statement gives error sometimes even after escaping the variables (\$1, \$2) but by using a2p it can be easily converted to Perl script:

For further information, you can read it’s documentation: a2p

6. system()

syntax: system( "command" );

It is also a Perl function (perlfunc) that executes a command and waits for it to get finished first and then resume the Perl script. The return value is the exit status of the command. It can be called in two ways:

system( "command arg1 arg2" );

OR

system( "command", "arg1", "arg2" );
