pbmm2:A minimap2 frontend for PacBio native data formats

BioStar — Tue, 18 Feb 2020 03:36:22 -0600

pbmm2 is a SMRT C++ wrapper for minimap2's C API. Its purpose is to support native PacBio in- and output, provide sets of recommended parameters, generate sorted output on-the-fly, and postprocess alignments. Sorted output can be used directly for polishing using GenomicConsensus, if BAM has been used as input to pbmm2. Benchmarks show that pbmm2 outperforms BLASR in sequence identity, number of mapped bases, and especially runtime. pbmm2 is the official replacement for BLASR.

HISAT2: a fast and sensitive alignment program for mapping next-generation sequencing reads

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 08 May 2018 04:27:22 -0500

HISAT2 is a fast and sensitive alignment program for mapping next-generation sequencing reads (both DNA and RNA) to a population of human genomes (as well as to a single reference genome). Based on an extension of BWT for graphs [Sirén et al. 2014], we designed and implemented a graph FM index (GFM), an original approach and its first implementation to the best of our knowledge. In addition to using one global GFM index that represents a population of human genomes, HISAT2 uses a large set of small GFM indexes that collectively cover the whole genome (each index representing a genomic region of 56 Kbp, with 55,000 indexes needed to cover the human population). These small indexes (called local indexes), combined with several alignment strategies, enable rapid and accurate alignment of sequencing reads. This new indexing scheme is called a Hierarchical Graph FM index (HGFM).

GenomeMapper: Simultaneous alignment of short reads against multiple genomes

Jit — Fri, 25 May 2018 09:29:44 -0500

GenomeMapper is a short read mapping tool designed for accurate read alignments. It quickly aligns millions of reads either with ungapped or gapped alignments. It can be used to align against multiple genomes simulanteously or against a single reference. If you are unsure which one is the appropriate GenomeMapper, you might want to use the latter https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2768987/
