How does SEX-DETector work?

SEX-DETector does not require prior sequencing of a reference genome: the same sequencing data can be used for the assembly and for the mapping of the reads. A full documentation on the pipeline can be found here.

• we recommend Trinity for the assembly.
• Trinity components should be merged with cap3. Our code to perform the merging is available here.
• We recommend BWA for mapping of the reads.
• When the mapping has been perfomed, the individuals need to be genotyped; SEX-DETector takes files produced by Reads2snp (which is available for download on the PopPhyl website) as input.

Mulan (http://mulan.dcode.org/), a novel method and a network server for comparing multiple draft and finished-quality sequences to identify functional elements conserved over evolutionary time. Mulan brings together several novel algorithms: the TBA multi-aligner program for rapid identification of local sequence conservation, and the multiTF program for detecting evolutionarily conserved transcription factor binding sites in multiple alignments. In addition, Mulan supports two-way communication with the GALA database; alignments of multiple species dynamically generated in GALA can be viewed in Mulan, and conserved transcription factor binding sites identified with Mulan/multiTF can be integrated and overlaid with extensive genome annotation data using GALA.
