  <description><![CDATA[
<p>We are generally interested in the mechanisms of species origin from a molecular and ecological perspective. Particularly, we are interested in the role of sex chromosomes in speciation. Most of our research is done on birds and mammals. Currently, we focus our research on two hybridizing song birds, the Common nightingale (Luscinia megarhynchos) and the Thrush Nightingale (L. luscinia). Combining population genomic and ecological approaches we try to elucidate the genetic architecture of reproductive isolation and understand the role of interspecific competition and song convergence in the evolution of reproductive isolation between the species. </p>

<p>This is an extensive tutorial to take you through the main features and gotchas of configuring GBrowse as a server. This tutorial assumes that you have successfully set up Perl, GD, BioPerl and the other GBrowse dependencies. If you haven't, please see the <a href="http://gmod.org/wiki/GBrowse_2.0_HOWTO">GBrowse HOWTO</a> During most of the tutorial, we will be using the "in-memory" GBrowse database (no relational database required!) Later we will show how to set up a genome size database using the berkeleydb and MySQL adaptors.</p>

	<title><![CDATA[RNA-Seq De novo Assembly Using Trinity]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Trinity, developed at the <a href="http://www.broadinstitute.org">Broad Institute</a> and the <a href="http://www.cs.huji.ac.il">Hebrew University of Jerusalem</a>, represents a novel method for the efficient and robust de novo reconstruction of transcriptomes from RNA-seq data. Trinity combines three independent software modules: Inchworm, Chrysalis, and Butterfly, applied sequentially to process large volumes of RNA-seq reads. Trinity partitions the sequence data into many individual de Bruijn graphs, each representing the transcriptional complexity at at a given gene or locus, and then processes each graph independently to extract full-length splicing isoforms and to tease apart transcripts derived from paralogous genes. Briefly, the process works like so:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><em>Inchworm</em> assembles the RNA-seq data into the unique sequences of transcripts, often generating full-length transcripts for a dominant isoform, but then reports just the unique portions of alternatively spliced transcripts.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><em>Chrysalis</em> clusters the Inchworm contigs into clusters and constructs complete de Bruijn graphs for each cluster. Each cluster represents the full transcriptonal complexity for a given gene (or sets of genes that share sequences in common). Chrysalis then partitions the full read set among these disjoint graphs.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><em>Butterfly</em> then processes the individual graphs in parallel, tracing the paths that reads and pairs of reads take within the graph, ultimately reporting full-length transcripts for alternatively spliced isoforms, and teasing apart transcripts that corresponds to paralogous genes.</p>
</li>
</ul>

<p>Download Trinity <a href="https://github.com/trinityrnaseq/trinityrnaseq/releases">here</a>.</p>
<p>Build Trinity by typing 'make' in the base installation directory.</p>
<p>Assemble RNA-Seq data like so:</p>
<pre><code> Trinity --seqType fq --left reads_1.fq --right reads_2.fq --CPU 6 --max_memory 20G 
</code></pre>
<p>Find assembled transcripts as: 'trinity_out_dir/Trinity.fasta'</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/trinityrnaseq/trinityrnaseq/wiki" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/trinityrnaseq/trinityrnaseq/wiki</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[DISCOVAR]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>DISCOVAR</strong> is a new variant caller and <strong>DISCOVAR <em>de novo</em></strong> a new genome assembler, both designed for state-of-the-art data. Their inputs are chosen to optimize quality while keeping costs low. Currently it takes as input Illumina reads of length 250 or longer &mdash; produced on MiSeq or HiSeq 2500 &mdash; and from a single PCR-free library. These data enable a level of completeness and continuity that was not previously possible.</p>
<p><strong>DISCOVAR</strong> can call variants on a region by region basis, potentially tiling an entire large genome. DISCOVAR variant calling is under active development and transitioning to VCF.</p>
<p><strong>DISCOVAR <em>de novo</em></strong> can generate <em>de novo</em> assemblies for both large and small genomes. It currently does not call variants.</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Smash is a completely alignment-free method/tool to find and visualise genomic rearrangements</strong><span>. The detection is based on&nbsp;</span><strong>conditional exclusive compression</strong><span>, namely using a FCM (Markov model), of high context order (typically 20). For visualisation, Smash outputs a&nbsp;</span><strong>SVG image</strong><span>, with an&nbsp;</span><strong>ideogram</strong><span>output architecture, where the patterns are represented with several&nbsp;</span><strong>HSV values</strong><span>&nbsp;(only value varies). The method can perform both in small- and large-scale. Nevertheless is more directed to large-scale since that the main aim of the research is to&nbsp;</span><strong>know where the large-scale [chromosomal by chromosome] of several primates was equal/different, having at a glance a map of the entire genomes</strong><span>.</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://bioinformatics.ua.pt/software/smash/" rel="nofollow">http://bioinformatics.ua.pt/software/smash/</a></p>]]></description>
