BASE: a practical de novo assembler for large genomes using long NGS reads

Rahul Nayak — Fri, 19 Oct 2018 07:25:21 -0500

new de novo assembler called BASE. It enhances the classic seed-extension approach by indexing the reads efficiently to generate adaptive seeds that have high probability to appear uniquely in the genome. Such seeds form the basis for BASE to build extension trees and then to use reverse validation to remove the branches based on read coverage and paired-end information, resulting in high-quality consensus sequences of reads sharing the seeds. Such consensus sequences are then extended to contigs.

nQuire: A statistical framework for ploidy estimation using NGS short-read data

Jit — Thu, 31 Jan 2019 05:12:19 -0600

nQuire implements a set of commands to estimate ploidy level of individuals from species, where recent polyploidization occurred and intraspecific ploidy variation is observed. Specifically, nQuire uses next-generation sequencing data to distinguish between diploids, triploids and tetraploids, on the basis of frequency distributions at variant sites where only two bases are segregating.

For more background see also the publication at BMC Bioinformatics.

gapFinisher: A reliable gap filling pipeline for SSPACE-LongRead scaffolder output

Rahul Nayak — Fri, 24 Jan 2020 06:04:40 -0600

gapFinisher is based on the controlled use of a previously published gap filling tool FGAP and works on all standard Linux/UNIX command lines. They compare the performance of gapFinisher against two other published gap filling tools PBJelly and GMcloser.

gapFinisher can fill gaps in draft genomes quickly and reliably.

irishgrid: Irish Grid Mapping System

Jit — Fri, 26 Dec 2014 07:53:24 -0600

Perl module for creating geographic 10km-square maps using either SVG or PNG (with GD library) output format.

Originally design to map the location of objects in a 10 km map IrishGrid includes:

native support of the Irish Grid System (see http://www.osi.ie/)
optimize for speed (there's as less as possible data to conversion)
customized color functions

Parliament2: Runs a combination of tools to generate structural variant calls on whole-genome sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 28 May 2020 21:57:03 -0500

Parliament2 identifies structural variants in a given sample relative to a reference genome. These structural variants cover large deletion events that are called as Deletions of a region, Insertions of a sequence into a region, Duplications of a region, Inversions of a region, or Translocations between two regions in the genome.

Parliament2 runs a combination of tools to generate structural variant calls on whole-genome sequencing data. It can run the following callers: Breakdancer, Breakseq2, CNVnator, Delly2, Manta, and Lumpy. Because of synergies in how the programs use computational resources, these are all run in parallel. Parliament2 will produce the outputs of each of the tools for subsequent investigation.
