ConPADE: Genome Assembly Ploidy Estimation from Next-Generation Sequencing Data

Jit — Fri, 24 Feb 2017 04:55:41 -0600

ConPADE (Contig Ploidy and Allele Dosage Estimation), a probabilistic method that estimates the ploidy of any given contig/scaffold based on its allele proportions. In the process, they report findings regarding errors in sequencing. The method can be used for whole genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing data. They also show applicability of the method for variant calling and allele dosage estimation. Results for simulated and real datasets are discussed and provide evidence that ConPADE performs well as long as enough sequencing coverage is available, or the true contig ploidy is low.

dnaPipeTE: de-novo assembly & annotation Pipeline for Transposable Elements

Rahul Nayak — Sat, 02 Dec 2017 18:25:44 -0600

dnaPipeTE (for de-novo assembly & annotation Pipeline for Transposable Elements), is a pipeline designed to find, annotate and quantify Transposable Elements in small samples of NGS datasets. It is very useful to quantify the proportion of TEs in newly sequenced genomes since it does not require genome assembly and works on small datasets (< 1X).

dnaPipeTE is developped by Clément Goubert, Laurent Modolo and the TREEP team of the LBBE: http://lbbe.univ-lyon1.fr/-Equipe-Elements-transposables-.html?lang=en
You can find the original publication in GBE here: https://academic.oup.com/gbe/article/7/4/1192/533768

output examples of quantification and TE landscape (relative age) produced by dnaPipeTE

PBSuite: Software for Long-Read Sequencing Data from PacBio

Jit — Mon, 27 Feb 2017 09:54:47 -0600

PBJelly - the genome upgrading tool.
PBHoney - the structural variation discovery tool

Both are contained within the PBSuite code found in downloads.

http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0047768

PBJelly is a highly automated pipeline that aligns long sequencing reads (such as PacBio RS reads or long 454 reads in fasta format) to high-confidence draft assembles. PBJelly fills or reduces as many captured gaps as possible to produce upgraded draft genomes.

----- PBHoney -----
Read The Paper
http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/15/180/abstract

PBHoney is an implementation of two variant-identification approaches designed to exploit the high mappability of long reads (i.e., greater than 10,000 bp). PBHoney considers both intra-read discordance and soft-clipped tails of long reads to identify structural variants.

MaxBin: software for binning assembled metagenomic sequences based on an Expectation-Maximization algorithm.

Jit — Mon, 06 Mar 2017 04:03:38 -0600

MaxBin is software for binning assembled metagenomic sequences based on an Expectation-Maximization algorithm. Users can understand the underlying bins (genomes) of the microbes in their metagenomes by simply providing assembled metagenomic sequences and the reads coverage information or sequencing reads. For users' convenience MaxBin will report genome-related statistics, including estimated completeness, GC content and genome size in the binning summary page.

Users can use MEGAN or similar software on MaxBin bins to find the taxonomy of each bin after the binning process is finished.

https://academic.oup.com/bioinformatics/article/32/4/605/1744462/MaxBin-2-0-an-automated-binning-algorithm-to

The most recent version of MaxBin is 2.2, which supports the analysis of coassemblies of multiple samples. It is available at this JBEI downloads sites as well as MaxBin and MaxBin 2.0 sourceforge sites.

GroopM is a metagenomic binning toolset. It leverages spatio-temoral
dynamics (differential coverage) to accurately (and almost automatically)
extract population genomes from multi-sample metagenomic datasets.

GroopM is largely parameter-free. Use: groopm -h for more info.
