Statistical for biological research

Neel — Thu, 03 Nov 2016 04:59:48 -0500

There is no disputing the importance of statistical analysis in biological research, but too often it is considered only after an experiment is completed, when it may be too late.

This collection highlights important statistical issues that biologists should be aware of and provides practical advice to help them improve the rigor of their work.

Nature Methods' Points of Significance column on statistics explains many key statistical and experimental design concepts. Other resources include an online plotting tool and links to statistics guides from other publishers.

Bookmarks Biostatistics materials and books

Jit — Tue, 08 Nov 2016 07:42:42 -0600

Biostatistics did not spring fully formed from the brow of R. A. Fisher, but evolved over many years. This process is continuing, although it may not be obvious from the outside. It has been ten years since the first edition of this book appeared (and rather longer since it was begun). Over this time, new areas of biostatistics have been developed and emphases and interpretations have changed

Maq: Mapping and Assembly with Quality

Jit — Tue, 22 Nov 2016 04:51:39 -0600

Maq stands for Mapping and Assembly with Quality It builds assembly by mapping short reads to reference sequences. Maq is a project hosted by SourceForge.net. The project page is available athttp://sourceforge.net/projects/maq/. Maq is previously known as mapass2.

Run Maq Now

Follow these steps to try Maq. All you need is a reference sequence file in the FASTA format.

Prepare a reference sequence (ref.fasta). Better a bacterial genome.
Download maq, maq-data and maqview at the download page.
Copy maq, maq.pl and maq_eval.pl to the $PATH or to the same directory.
Simulate diploid reference and read sequences, map reads, call variants and evaluate the results in one go:
```
maq.pl demo ref.fasta calib-30.dat
```
where calib-30.dat is contained in maq-data.

View the alignment:

cd maqdemo/easyrun;
maqindex -i -c consensus.cns all.map;
maqview -c consensus.cns all.map

Even for advanced maq users, running `maq.pl demo' is recommended. You may find something helpful.
