sfu-compbio.github.io - SCALCE (/skeɪlz/, a.k.a. boosting Sequence Compression Algorithms using Locally ConsistentEncoding) is a tool for compressing FASTQ files. It is designed specifically for the Illumina-generated FASTQ files, but supports any...

www.broadinstitute.org - As the number of sequence and annotated genomes grows larger, the need to understand, compare, and contrast the data becomes increasingly important. Using the power of the human visual system to detect trends and spot outliers is necessary in such...

http://rast.nmpdr.org/ - The RAST (Rapid Annotation using Subsystem Technology) annotation engine was built in 2008 to annotate bacterial and archaeal genomes. It works by offering a standard software pipeline for identifying genomic features (i.e., protein-encoding genes...

satsuma.sourceforge.net - Satsuma is a whole-genome synteny alignment program. It takes two genomes, computes alignments, and then keeps only the parts that are orthologous, i.e. following the conserved order and orientation of features, such as protein coding genes,...

http://docs.bpipe.org/ - Bpipe provides a platform for running big bioinformatics jobs that consist of a series of processing stages - known as 'pipelines'. January 20th, 2016 - New! Bpipe 0.9.9 released! Download latest, all Documentation Mailing List (Google...

broadinstitute.github.io - Decoding SAM flags This utility makes it easy to identify what are the properties of a read based on its SAM flag value, or conversely, to find what the SAM Flag value would be for a given combination of properties. To decode a given SAM flag...

http://kaiju.binf.ku.dk/ - Kaiju is a program for the taxonomic classification of metagenomic high-throughput sequencing reads. Each read is directly assigned to a taxon within the NCBI taxonomy by comparing it to a reference database containing microbial and viral protein...

compbio.cs.toronto.edu - Scarpa is a stand-alone scaffolding tool for NGS data. It can be used together with virtually any genome assembler and any NGS read mapper that supports SAM format. Other features include support for multiple libraries and an option to estimate...

github.com - This pipeline performs the following steps: Assembly of nanopore reads using Canu. Polish canu contigs using racon (optional). Map a paired-end Illumina dataset onto the contigs obtained in the previous steps...

github.com - AlignGraph is a software that extends and joins contigs or scaffolds by reassembling them with help provided by a reference genome of a closely related organism. Using AlignGraph AlignGraph --read1 reads_1.fa --read2 reads_2.fa --contig contigs.fa...
