J-Circos

Shruti Paniwala — Fri, 17 Feb 2017 09:06:54 -0600

Circos plot tool (J-Circos) that is an interactive visualization tool that can plot Circos figures, as well as being able to dynamically add data to the figure, and providing information for specific data points using mouse hover display and zoom in/out functions. J-Circos uses the Java computer language to enable it to be used on most operating systems (Windows, MacOS, Linux). Users can input data into J-Circos using flat data formats, as well as from the GUI. J-Circos will enable biologists to better study more complex chromosomal interactions and fusion transcripts that are otherwise difficult to visualize from next-generation sequencing data.

Lifemap

Jit — Mon, 10 Apr 2017 05:42:37 -0500

Lifemap is an interactive tool to explore the WHOLE NCBI TAXONOMY. The concept used in Lifemap is similar to the one used in cartography with tools like Google Maps© or Open Street Maps: exploring is done by zooming and panning.

The current tree contains ALL species present in NCBI taxonomy as of October 18th, 2016: 1,135,169 species including 10,545 Archaea, 418,777 Bacteria and 705,847 Eukaryotes. The Lifemap tree is updated every two weeks.

All the nodes in the tree are clickable. This displays various information and options:

The species name (and the associated common name if there is one)
The rank (kingdom, family, class, species...)
Ability to go to the corresponding node/species on NCBI web site (displayed in a new window)
Possibility to download the corresponding subtree in newick extended format
Possibilty to get the whole lineage from the current node/tip to the root of the tree.

gggenomes: A grammar of graphics for comparative genomics

Surabhi Chaudhary — Mon, 01 Feb 2021 14:47:32 -0600

gggenomes is a versatile graphics package for comparative genomics. It extends the popular R visualization packageggplot2 by adding dedicated plot functions for genes, syntenic regions, etc. and verbs to manipulate the plot to, for example, quickly zoom in into gene neighborhoods.

Π-cyc: A Reference-free SNP Discovery Application using Parallel Graph Search

Jit — Tue, 28 Jan 2020 03:34:23 -0600

Reference free SNP search for comparative population genomics: multiple samples run simultanously. **experimental phase, compiles and runs with OpenMPI-1.8.8 with Intel Compiler only

Cycles enumeration (aka Bubbles) as part of de novo de bruijn graphs assembly using colours can be unpractical for large error prone genomes which makes the assembly process produce an excessive number of false positive cycles. Our solution is to search the graph in multicores shared memory parallel mode using graph decomposition then use filtering method to generate good quality SNPs.

GenoFig: a user-friendly application for the visualization and comparison of genomic regions

BioStar — Mon, 05 Aug 2024 23:06:58 -0500

Tool for graphical vizualisation of annotated genetic regions, and homologous regions comparison. It is an independent recoding of Easyfig 2 initially developped by at the S. Beatson Lab [https://mjsull.github.io/Easyfig/]

Download the GenoFig source code using the 'Download' button on top of this page. Cloning is currently not available for people not member of the INRAE French Institution. After decompression, open a terminal in the folder containing the decompressed files and run:

conda env create -f extras/requirements.yml

slacTree: SVG Large Annotated Circular Tree drawing

Jit — Mon, 03 Jul 2017 08:02:56 -0500

A simple, extensible, Perl script for producing figures of large phylogenetic trees.

While there are many other tree drawing programs, slacTree was originally written in 2009 to fill a need for producing publication quality figures of circular trees with more than 1000 taxa with custom annotations
Because it is a single Perl script with very few dependencies, it is easy to run, and easy to further customize
SVG is used because it is a scalable format allowing for very small representations of entire trees or highly magnified regions with unlimited resolution
Circular and radial trees are more compact than linear representations

Dr. Rob Edwards describes some of the problems, challenges, and approches in genome annotation, with a particular emphasis on how the Fellowship for the Interpretation of Genomes (FIG) developed subsystems using the SEED database available at http://www.theseed.org/

Pollux: platform independent error correction of single and mixed genomes

Jit — Fri, 19 May 2017 09:41:27 -0500

Pollux: General-purpose error corrector that corrects errors introduced by Illumina, Ion Torrent, and Roche 454 sequencing technologies and can be applied to single- or mixed-genome data. In addition to correcting substitution errors, we locate and correct insertion, deletion, and homopolymer errors while remaining sensitive to low coverage areas of sequencing projects. Using published data sets, we correct 94% of Illumina MiSeq errors, 88% of Ion Torrent PGM errors, 85% of Roche 454 GS Junior errors. Introduced errors are 20 to 70 times more rare than successfully corrected errors. Furthermore, we show that the quality of assemblies improves when reads are corrected by our software.
