DRAWID: user-friendly Java software for chromosome measurements and idiogram drawing

Robert M Willioms — Mon, 27 Nov 2017 16:03:49 -0600

"DRAWID has number of advantages including a user-friendly interactive interface, possibility for simultaneous chromosome and FISH/GISH/banding signal measurement and idiogram drawing as well as number of useful functions facilitating the procedure of chromosome analysis," explain the scientists.

"The output of the program is Microsoft XL table and publish-ready idiogram picture."

EWAS: epigenome-wide association study software 2.0

Jit — Wed, 21 Mar 2018 18:14:00 -0500

EWAS2.0 can analyze EWAS data and identify the association between epigenetic variations and disease/phenotype. On the basis of EWAS1.0, we have added more distinctive features. EWAS2.0 software was developed based on our “population epigenetic framework” and can perform: (1) epigenome-wide single marker association study; (2) epigenome-wide methylation haplotype (meplotype) association study; and (3) epigenome-wide association meta-analysis.

OrthoANI: An improved algorithm and software for calculating average nucleotide identity

Abhimanyu Singh — Wed, 12 Dec 2018 08:36:08 -0600

OAT uses OrthoANI to measure the overall similarity between two genome sequences. ANI and OrthoANI are comparable algorithms: they share the same species demarcation cut-off at 95~96% and large comparison studies have demonstrated both algorithms to produce near identical reciprocal similarities. Details of the OrthoANI algorithm is given in (Lee et al. 2015). OAT employs an easy-to-follow Graphical User Interface that allow researchers to calculate OrthoANI values between genomes of interest without unfamiliar Command Line Environments. Moreover, the OAT_cmd command-line software can be integrated into preexisting bioinformatics pipelines.

IQ-TREE: Efficient software for phylogenomic inference

Jit — Mon, 18 Feb 2019 04:25:11 -0600

A fast and effective stochastic algorithm to infer phylogenetic trees by maximum likelihood. IQ-TREE compares favorably to RAxML and PhyML in terms of likelihoods with similar computing time

IQ-TREE found higher likelihoods between 62.2% and 87.1% of the studied alignments, thus efficiently exploring the tree-space. If we use the IQ-TREE stopping rule, RAxML and PhyML are faster in 75.7% and 47.1% of the DNA alignments and 42.2% and 100% of the protein alignments, respectively. However, the range of obtaining higher likelihoods with IQ-TREE improves to 73.3–97.1%. IQ-TREE is freely available at http://www.cibiv.at/software/iqtree

DnaSP: DNA Sequence Polymorphism, is a software package for the analysis of DNA polymorphisms

Neel — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 19:51:38 -0600

DnaSP, DNA Sequence Polymorphism, is a software package for the analysis of DNA polymorphisms using data from a single locus (a multiple sequence aligned -MSA data), or from several loci (a Multiple-MSA data, such as formats generated by some assembler RAD-seq software). DnaSP can estimate several measures of DNA sequence variation within and between populations in noncoding, synonymous or nonsynonymous sites, or in various sorts of codon positions), as well as linkage disequilibrium, recombination, gene flow and gene conversion parameters.
