SRF/JRF Bioinformatics at CIARI

Fri, 04 Dec 2015 00:10:09 -0600

Realizing the importance of Island Agriculture to meet the requirements of local population and tourists, Indian Council of Agricultural research (ICAR) established Central Island Agricultural Research Institute, Port Blair on June 23rd, 1978 by merging different regional research stations of ICAR institutes located in Islands. The ultimate aim of CIARI is the developments of island agricultural production technologies which utilizes the strengths of the island and convert the constraints in opportunities, without causing any ill effect to the fragile ecosystem of the island.The institute has made tremendous progress in the Agriculture development of the islands during the last three decades. Keeping in view the natural resources of the islands diversity, fragile ecosystem, research program would be designed to maximize the productivity without disturbing to the islands ecosystem to provide better and decent livelihood and as a source of revenue and resource generation. Research and development in Agriculture sector should cover all disciplines in order to have a balanced progress in all disciplines for the overall benefits of the farmers of these islands.

Sequence assembly with MIRA 4

Priya Singh — Wed, 06 Apr 2016 08:21:22 -0500

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 Torrent
Solexa (Illumina) sequencing
(in development) Pacific Biosciences sequencing

into contiguous sequences (called contigs). One can use the sequences of different sequencing technologies either in a single assembly run (a true hybrid assembly) or by mapping one type of data to an assembly of other sequencing type (a semi-hybrid assembly (or mapping)) or by mapping a data against consensus sequences of other assemblies (a simple mapping).

The MIRA acronym stands for Mimicking Intelligent Read Assembly and the program pretty well does what its acronym says (well, most of the time anyway). It is the Swiss army knife of sequence assembly that I've used and developed during the past 14 years to get assembly jobs I work on done efficiently - and especially accurately. That is, without me actually putting too much manual work into it.
