	<title><![CDATA[BRIG]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>BRIG is a free cross-platform (Windows/Mac/Unix) application that can display circular comparisons between a large number of genomes, with a focus on handling genome assembly data. The application is available at:<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/brig">http://sourceforge.net/projects/brig</a></p>
<p>If you have any questions or comments, post them on&nbsp;<a href="http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=328245">one of the trackers</a>&nbsp;on BRIG&rsquo;s SourceForge page:<a href="http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=328245">http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=328245</a>.</p>
<p>Features:</p>
<ul>
<li>Images show similarity between a central reference sequence and other sequences as concentric rings.</li>
<li>BRIG will perform all BLAST comparisons and file parsing automatically via a simple GUI.</li>
<li>Contig boundaries and read coverage can be displayed for draft genomes; customized graphs and annotations can be displayed.</li>
<li>Using a user-defined set of genes as input, BRIG can display gene presence, absence, truncation or sequence variation in a set of complete genomes, draft genomes or even raw, unassembled sequence data.</li>
<li>BRIG also accepts SAM-formatted read-mapping files enabling genomic regions present in unassembled sequence data from multiple samples to be compared simultaneously</li>
</ul>

J-Circos uses the Java computer language to enable it to be used on most operating systems (Windows, MacOS, Linux). Users can input data into J-Circos using flat data formats, as well as from the GUI. J-Circos will enable biologists to better study more complex chromosomal interactions and fusion transcripts that are otherwise difficult to visualize from next-generation sequencing data.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://www.australianprostatecentre.org/research/software/jcircos" rel="nofollow">http://www.australianprostatecentre.org/research/software/jcircos</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[bedtools]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Collectively, the&nbsp;<strong>bedtools</strong>&nbsp;utilities are a swiss-army knife of tools for a wide-range of genomics analysis tasks. The most widely-used tools enable&nbsp;<em>genome arithmetic</em>: that is, set theory on the genome. For example,&nbsp;<strong>bedtools</strong>&nbsp;allows one to<em>intersect</em>,&nbsp;<em>merge</em>,&nbsp;<em>count</em>,&nbsp;<em>complement</em>, and&nbsp;<em>shuffle</em>&nbsp;genomic intervals from multiple files in widely-used genomic file formats such as BAM, BED, GFF/GTF, VCF. While each individual tool is designed to do a relatively simple task (e.g.,&nbsp;<em>intersect</em>&nbsp;two interval files), quite sophisticated analyses can be conducted by combining multiple bedtools operations on the UNIX command line.</p>
<p><strong>bedtools</strong>&nbsp;is developed in the&nbsp;<a href="http://quinlanlab.org/">Quinlan laboratory</a>&nbsp;at the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.utah.edu/">University of Utah</a>&nbsp;and benefits from fantastic contributions made by scientists worldwide.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://bedtools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://bedtools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>MetaBAT, An Efficient Tool for Accurately Reconstructing Single Genomes from Complex Microbial Communities</p>
<p>Grouping large genomic fragments assembled from shotgun metagenomic sequences to deconvolute complex microbial communities, or metagenome binning, enables the study of individual organisms and their interactions. Here we developed an automated metagenome binning software, called MetaBAT, which integrates empirical probabilistic distances of genome abundance and tetranucleotide frequency. Tested on both synthetic and real metagenome datasets, MetaBAT outperforms alternative methods in both accuracy and computational efficiency. Applying MetaBAT to an assembly from 1,704 human gut samples formed 1,634 genome bins (&gt;200kb) in 3 hours, where 621 genome bins are &gt;50% complete with &lt;5% contamination from other species. Further analysis shows that the quality of these genome bins approaches manually curated genomes.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://bitbucket.org/berkeleylab/metabat" rel="nofollow">https://bitbucket.org/berkeleylab/metabat</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>BioPerl is a compilation of Perl modules that can be used to build bioinformatics-related Perl scripts. It is used, for example, in the development of source codes, standalone software/tools, and algorithms in bioinformatics programmes. Different modules are easy to instal and include, making it easier to perform different functions. Despite the fact that Python is commonly favoured over Perl, some bioinformatics software, such as the standalone version of 'alienomics', is written in Perl. Often it's a major problem for beginners to execute certain Unix/shell commands in Perl script, so it's hard to determine which feature is unique to a situation.</p><div style="background-color: white;">Perl provides various features and operators for the execution of external commands (described as follows), which are unique in their own way.</div><div style="background-color: white;">&nbsp;</div><div style="background-color: white;">They vary slightly from one another, making it difficult for Perl beginners to choose between them.</div><div style="background-color: white;">&nbsp;</div><div style="background-color: white;"><strong>1. IPC::Open2</strong></div><p>More at https://bioinformaticsonline.com/snippets/view/42919/perl-ipcopen2-module</p><p><strong>2. exec&rdquo;&rdquo;</strong></p><p><em>&nbsp;syntax:&nbsp;</em><code>exec "command";</code></p><div style="background-color: #edfbff;">It's a Perl function (perlfunc) that executes a command but never returns, similar to a function's return statement.</div><div style="background-color: white;">While running the command, it keeps processing the script and does not wait until it finishes first, returns false when the command is not found, but never returns true.</div><p><strong>3. Backticks &ldquo; or qx//</strong></p><p><em>syntax:&nbsp;</em><code>`command`;</code></p><p><em>syntax:&nbsp;</em><code>qx/command/;</code></p><div style="background-color: white;">It's a Perl operator (perlop) that executes a command and then resumes the Perl script once the command has ended, but the return value is the command's STDOUT.</div><p><strong>4.

It can also be used with or without the shell.
