MitoZ: a toolkit for animal mitochondrial genome assembly, annotation and visualization

Jit — Fri, 24 Jan 2020 04:09:15 -0600

MitoZ is a Python3-based toolkit which aims to automatically filter pair-end raw data (fastq files), assemble genome, search for mitogenome sequences from the genome assembly result, annotate mitogenome (genbank file as result), and mitogenome visualization. MitoZ is available from https://github.com/linzhi2013/MitoZ.

EFS: an ensemble feature selection tool implemented as R-package and web-application

Jit — Tue, 28 Jan 2020 05:12:23 -0600

The software EFS (Ensemble Feature Selection) makes use of multiple feature selection methods and combines their normalized outputs to a quantitative ensemble importance. Currently, eight different feature selection methods have been integrated in EFS, which can be used separately or combined in an ensemble.

Genomic Basis of Evolutionary Innovations (GEvol)

BioStar — Sat, 06 Dec 2025 06:11:00 -0600

The Priority Programme (SPP 2349) funded by German Science Foundation (DFG) started 2022: „Genomic Basis of Evolutionary Innovations (GEvol)“

GEvol is unique as it will use, for the first time, a large taxonomic group to focus on one goal: to characterise the dynamics and mechanisms of genomic innovations underlying novel traits using comparative evolutionary genomics (and related data).
Thus, projects participating in GEvol we will ask fundamental evolutionary questions such as:
1. At what level is evolution repeatable?
2. How does genomic plasticity interfere with phenotypic plasticity during evolution?
3. How do inter- and intra-specific interactions influence genomic architectures?
4. How predictable is phenotypic variation given some knowledge about the dynamics and mechanisms of underlying genome evolution?

FGENESH - Program for predicting multiple genes in genomic DNA sequences

BioStar — Thu, 20 Dec 2018 11:55:08 -0600

FGENESH is the fastest (50-100 times faster than GenScan) and most accurate gene finder available - see the figure and the table below. In recent rice genome sequencing projects, it was cited "the most successful (gene finding) program (Yu et al. (2002) Science 296:79) and was used to produce 87% of all high-evidence predicted genes (Goff et al. (2002) Science 296:79).
