TRITEX sequence assembly pipeline for Triticeae genomes

Jit — Tue, 20 Aug 2019 09:47:14 -0500

The pipeline is open-source and hosted in a public Bitbucket repository.

TRITEX has been run on highly inbred genotypes of barley (Hordeum vulgare), tetraploid wheat (Triticum turgidum) and hexaploid wheat (T. aestivum) with reasonable results: super-scaffold N50 values in the range of dozens of Mb and pseudomolecules with better gene space representation than a BAC-by-BAC assembly. It has never been tested and is not expected to work on heterozygous or autopolyploid genomes.

A protocol for generating chromosome-conformation capture sequencing (Hi-C) data suitable for use with the pipeline is described in Himmelbach et al. 2018. Refer to the technical notes of 10X Genomics on how to generate Chromium data.

WGDdetector: a pipeline for detecting whole genome duplication events using the genome or transcriptome annotations

LEGE — Thu, 23 Jul 2020 05:52:56 -0500

WGDdetector pipeline that integrates all analyses including gene family constructing, dS estimating and phasing, and outputting the dS values of each paralogs pairs processed with only one command. We further chose four species (Arabidopsis thaliana, Juglans regia, Populus trichocarpa and Xenopus laevis) representing herb, wood and animal, to test its practicability. Our final results showed a high degree of accuracy with the previous studies using both genome and transcriptome data.

CSA: A high-throughput chromosome-scale assembly pipeline for vertebrate genomes

Jit — Wed, 10 Mar 2021 06:13:49 -0600

The pipeline can use information from scaffolded assemblies (for example from HiC or 10X Genomics), or even from diverged (~65-100 Mya) reference genomes for ordering the contigs and thus support the assembly process. This typically results in improved contig N50 when compared to current state of the art methods.

For smaller vertebrate genomes (~1 Gbp) chromosome scale assemblies can be achieved within 12h on high-end Desktop computers (Intel i7, 12 CPU threads, 128 GB RAM). Larger mammalian genomes (~3Gbp) can be processed within 15-18 h on server equipment (Xeon, 96 CPU threads, 1TB RAM).

LncPipe:A Nextflow-based pipeline for comprehensive analyses of long non-coding RNAs from RNA-seq datasets

LEGE — Fri, 17 Sep 2021 01:57:02 -0500

The pipeline was developed based on a popular workflow framework Nextflow, composed of four core procedures including reads alignment, assembly, identification and quantification. It contains various unique features such as well-designed lncRNAs annotation strategy, optimized calculating efficiency, diversified classification and interactive analysis report. LncPipe allows users additional control in interuppting the pipeline, resetting parameters from command line, modifying main script directly and resume analysis from previous checkpoint.

pipesnake: bioinformatics best-practice analysis pipeline for phylogenomic reconstruction

LEGE — Wed, 21 Feb 2024 06:19:41 -0600

ausarg/pipesnake is a bioinformatics best-practice analysis pipeline for phylogenomic reconstruction starting from short-read 'second-generation' sequencing data.

The pipeline is built using Nextflow, a workflow tool to run tasks across multiple compute infrastructures in a very portable manner. It uses Docker/Singularity containers making installation trivial and results highly reproducible. The Nextflow DSL2 implementation of this pipeline uses one container per process which makes it much easier to maintain and update software dependencies.

Live Webinar on RNA-Seq Data Analysis on 9 Nov 2016

Strand — Wed, 19 Oct 2016 05:25:27 -0500

Live Webinar on RNA-Seq Data Analysis

Abstract: Strand NGS supports an extensive workflow for the analysis and visualization of RNA-Seq data. The workflow includes Transcriptome / Genome alignment, Differential expression analysis with Statistical approach and Splicing events detection. Strand NGS also supports novel discovery like identification of novel genes, exons and Novel splice junctions, alongside it can also detect gene fusion events. Further downstream analysis such as GO and pathway analysis can be performed on the set of interesting genes. The product has an option to create pipelines for time consuming jobs which automates analysis and leaves more time for end data interpretation. This webinar will give an overview of the features in the RNA-Seq data analysis workflow in Strand NGS and also highlights on parameters within each feature that can be optimized depending on datasets and analysis needs.

Speaker: Mr. Sugandan Sivamani, Senior Application Scientist, Strand Life Sciences

Webinar on Unique Molecular Identifier-powered Ultra-sensitive Variant Calling using Strand NGS - Case Study

by Dr. Pandurang Kolekar, Bioinformatics Engineer, Strand Life Sciences

Abstract:

Unique Molecular Identifiers (UMIs) are short random nucleotide sequences that are increasingly being used in high-throughput sequencing experiments. In this webinar, we will highlight the UMI-friendly features of Strand NGS v3.1 including support for handling well known and customised UMI libraries, QC metrics, consensus alignment, UMI-based family size filters for read list, genome browser enabled with UMI-specific features and filters, UMI-aware variant calling parameters, and exporting UMI-tagged aligned samples. These all features together empower users to harness the potential of UMI-tagged NGS data for deeper insights. A case study demonstrating application of these UMI-based features in Strand NGS for low frequency variant calling in cfDNA sample will be presented.

UMI-tagged NGS libraries allow, ultra-sensitive detection of low frequency variants from liquid biopsy samples using DNA-Seq and accurate quantification of transcript-level expression using RNA-Seq. The recent release of Strand NGS v3.1, is equipped with the necessary features to efficiently analyse UMI-tagged NGS data helping researchers and labs involved in rare variant calling like in cfDNA based cancer diagnostics, and accurate transcript quantification with RNA-Seq.
