TGS technologies have been used to produce highly accurate de novo assemblies of hundreds of microbial genomes and highly contiguous reconstructions of many dozens of plant and animal genomes, enabling new insights into evolution and sequence...

Genetic variants discovery tool

genomearchitect.github.io - Apollo is a plug-in for the JBrowse Genome Viewer. In addition to genes and pseudogenes, users can annotate ncRNAs (snRNA, snoRNA, tRNA, rRNA), miRNAs, repeat regions, and transposable elements; each annotation type has its own...

github.com - Over the years most bioinformatics people amass a collection of small utility scripts which make their lives easier. Too often they are kept either in private repositories or as part of a public collection to which noone else can contribute. Biocode...

github.com - Simulated genomes with pre-defined and random genomic variants can be very useful for benchmarking genomic and bioinformatics analyses. Here we introduce simuG, a lightweight tool for simulating the full-spectrum of genomic variants (single...

China’s BGI says it can sequence a genome for just $100

Applications are invited from highly motivated students (UGC-CSIR-JRF) with a background in Genomics/ Biotechnology/ Molecular Microbiology/ Biochemistry and Bioinformatics to pursue research leading to Ph.D. in the following areas; 1. Cancer...

github.com - RefKA, a reference-based approach for long read genome assembly. This approach relies on breaking up a closely related reference genome into bins, aligning k-mers unique to each bin with PacBio reads, and then assembling each bin in parallel...
