The goal of our research is to better understand the biology of microbial organisms of significant ecological, veterinary and medical importance. To achieve this goal, our team combines the power of next generation DNA sequencing and...

satsuma.sourceforge.net - Satsuma is a whole-genome synteny alignment program. It takes two genomes, computes alignments, and then keeps only the parts that are orthologous, i.e. following the conserved order and orientation of features, such as protein coding genes,...

broadinstitute.github.io - Picard is a set of command line tools for manipulating high-throughput sequencing (HTS) data and formats such as SAM/BAM/CRAM and VCF. These file formats are defined in the Hts-specs repository. See especially the SAM specification and the VCF...

mira-assembler.sourceforge.net - MIRA is a multi-pass DNA sequence data assembler/mapper for whole genome and EST/RNASeq projects. MIRA assembles/maps reads gained by electrophoresis sequencing (aka Sanger sequencing) 454 pyro-sequencing (GS20, FLX or Titanium) Ion...

www.bioinformatics.babraham.ac.uk - Understanding Following table and graphs Duplication level kmer profile per base GC content per base N content per base quality per base sequence content per sequence GC content per sequence quality sequence length distribution More at...

sc932.github.io - Assembly Likelihood Evaluation (ALE) framework that overcomes these limitations, systematically evaluating the accuracy of an assembly in a reference-independent manner using rigorous statistical methods. This framework is comprehensive, and...

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - Background. Next-generation sequencing technologies are now producing multiple times the genome size in total reads from a single experiment. This is enough information to reconstruct at least some of the differences between the individual genome...

github.com - SGA is a de novo genome assembler based on the concept of string graphs. The major goal of SGA is to be very memory efficient, which is achieved by using a compressed representation of DNA sequence reads. More at https://github.com/jts/sga SGA...

www.topcoder.com - Learning greedy algo for biologist.  https://www.topcoder.com/community/data-science/data-science-tutorials/greedy-is-good/ This webpage is also useful for the...

The genome assemblers generally take a file of short sequence reads and a file of quality-value as the input. Since the quality-value file for the high throughput short reads is usually highly memory-intensive, only a few assemblers, best suited for...
