Visualization and quality assessment of de novo genome assemblies

Citation

This software is fully described in the paper:
Riba-Grognuz, Keller, Falquet, Xenarios & Wurm (2011) Visualization and quality assessment of de novo genome assemblies.

In brief, our scripts create Cytoscape files to visualize transcript evidence that suggests adjacency between scaffolds and contigs.

Software requirements

BLAT (tested with Standalone BLAT v. 32×1). Source Binaries .
Cytoscape (tested with versions 2.7.0, 2.8.2)
a UNIX machine (tested on Mac OS X 10.6 and CentOS 4.6)

The Rearrangement Overview page describes the one or more breakpoints which make up a structural variant. A breakpoint is defined as a region or point where the sample sequence has altered from the reference sequence. Minimum interpretation is made of this data. One variant event can consist of one or multiple breakpoints. The Syntax (shown above the table) gives a detailed description of the variant and its location  (e.g. chr11:g.36585230_76606619del, a deletion of roughly 40Mb on chromosome 11). Syntax is based on HGVS mutation nomenclature recommendations [http://www.hgvs.org/rec.html].
