	<description><![CDATA[<p>R Graphical Cookbook by Winston Chang</p><p>A very nice book by Winston Chang for R ethusiast. The R code presented in these pages is the R code actually used to produce the Figures in the book. There will be differences compared to the code chunks shown in the text of the book, but in most cases the differences will be that these pages contain additional code to lay out multiple plots on a single "page".</p><p>The code presented for each figure is self-contained, i.e., all code required to produce the figure is included. This means that there is sometimes considerable overlap of code between several figures  In some cases, it may be necessary to install an add-on package from CRAN to get the code to run.</p><p>More books at http://www.e-reading.club/bookreader.php/137370/C486x_APPb.pdf</p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Progressive Cactus]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<h1><em style="font-size: 12.8px; font-weight: normal;">v0.0 by Glenn Hickey (<a href="mailto:hickey@soe.ucsc.edu">hickey@soe.ucsc.edu</a>)</em></h1>
<p>Progressive Cactus is a whole-genome alignment package.</p>
<h3><a href="https://github.com/glennhickey/progressiveCactus#requirements"></a>Requirements</h3>
<ul>
<li>git</li>
<li>gcc 4.2 or newer</li>
<li>python 2.7</li>
<li>wget</li>
<li>64bit processor and build environment</li>
<li>150GB+ of memory on at least one machine when aligning mammal-sized genomes; less memory is needed for smaller genomes.</li>
<li>Parasol or SGE for cluster support.</li>
<li>750M disk space</li>
</ul>
<h3><a href="https://github.com/glennhickey/progressiveCactus#instructions"></a>Instructions</h3>
<p>IMPORTANT NOTE: Progressive Cactus does not presently support installation into paths that contain spaces. Until this is resolved, you can use a softlink as a workaround: ln -s "path with spaces" "installation path without spaces"</p>
<p>In the parent directory of where you want Progressive Cactus installed:</p>
<pre><code>git clone git://github.com/glennhickey/progressiveCactus.git
cd progressiveCactus
git pull
git submodule update --init
make
</code></pre>
<p>It is also convenient to add the location of&nbsp;<code>progressiveCactus/bin</code>&nbsp;to your PATH environment variable. In order to run the included tools (ex hal2maf) in the submodules/ directory structure, first source&nbsp;<code>progressiveCactus/environment</code>&nbsp;to load the installed environment.</p>
<p>If any errors occur during the build process, you are unlikely to be able to use the tool. Please submit a GitHub issue so we can help out: not only will you help yourself, but others who wish to use the tool as well.</p>
<p><em>Note that all dependencies are also built and included in the submodules/ directory. This increases the size and build time but greatly simplifies installation and version management. The installation does not create or modify any files outside the progressiveCactus/ directory.</em></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/glennhickey/progressiveCactus" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/glennhickey/progressiveCactus</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Linux command line exercises for NGS data processing]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>The purpose of this tutorial is to introduce students to the frequently used tools for NGS analysis as well as giving experience in writing one-liners. Copy the required files to your current directory, change directory (<code>cd</code>) to the <code>linuxTutorial</code> folder, and do all the processing inside:</p>
<pre><span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/]$</span> cp -r /home/opt/MScBioinformatics/linuxTutorial .
<span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/]$</span> cd linuxTutorial
<span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/linuxTutorial]$</span>
</pre>
<p>I have deliberately chosen <code>Awk</code> in the exercises as it is a language in itself and is used more often to manipulate NGS data as compared to the other command line tools such as <code>grep</code>, <code>sed</code>, <code>perl</code> etc. Furthermore, having a command on <code>awk</code> will make it easier to understand advanced tutorials such as <a href="http://userweb.eng.gla.ac.uk/umer.ijaz/bioinformatics/Illumina_workflow.html">Illumina Amplicons Processing Workflow</a>. <br><br> In <code>Linux</code>, we use a shell that is a program that takes your commands from the keyboard and gives them to the operating system. Most Linux systems utilize Bourne Again SHell (<code>bash</code>), but there are several additional shell programs on a typical Linux system such as <code>ksh</code>, <code>tcsh</code>, and <code>zsh</code>. To see which shell you are using, type</p>
<pre><span>[uzi@quince-srv2 ~/linuxTutorial]$</span> echo $SHELL

<span>/bin/bash

	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>We have developed the Sequence Ontology Bioinformatics Analysis (SOBA) tool to provide a simple statistical and graphical summary of an annotated genome. We envisage its use during annotation jamborees, genome comparison and for use by developers for rapid feedback during annotation software development and testing. SOBA also provides annotation consistency feedback to ensure correct use of terminology within annotations, and guides users to add new terms to the Sequence Ontology when required. SOBA is available at http://www.sequenceontology.org/cgi-bin/soba.cgi.</span></p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>This sockeye&nbsp;software uses the Ensembl database project to import sequence and annotation information from several eukaryotic species. A user can additionally import their own custom sequence and annotation data. Individual annotation objects are displayed in Sockeye by using custom 3D models. Ensembl-derived and imported sequences can be analyzed by using a suite of multiple and pair-wise alignment algorithms. The results of these comparative analyses are also displayed in the 3D environment of Sockeye. By using the Java3D API to visualize genomic data in a 3D environment, we are able to compactly display cross-sequence comparisons. This provides the user with a novel platform for visualizing and comparing genomic feature organization.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://www.bcgsc.ca/platform/bioinfo/software/sockeye/releases/1.3" rel="nofollow">http://www.bcgsc.ca/platform/bioinfo/software/sockeye/releases/1.3</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Referee: Genome assembly quality scores]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Modern genome sequencing technologies provide a succint measure of quality at each position in every read, however all of this information is lost in the assembly process. Referee summarizes the quality information from the reads that map to a site in an assembled genome to calculate a quality score for each position in the genome assembly.</p>
<p>We accomplish this by first calculating genotype likelihoods for every site. For a given site in a diploid genome, there are 10 possible genotypes (AA, AC, AG, AT, CC, CG, CT, GG, GT, TT). Referee takes as input the genotype likelihoods calculated for all 10 genotypes given the called reference base at each position.</p>
<h3>Referee is a program to calculate a quality score for every position in a genome assembly. This allows for easy filtering of low quality sites for any downstream analysis.</h3>
