Created by Stephen Johnson, Brett Trost, Dr. Jeffrey R. Long, Dr. Anthony Kusalik University of Saskatchewan, Department of Computer Science

BEAR is intended to be an easy-to-use collection of scripts for generating simulated WGS metagenomic reads with read lengths, quality scores, error profiles, and species abundances derived from real user-supplied WGS data.

SOAP2 : Short Oligonucleotide Analysis Package 2

Poonam Mahapatra — Wed, 23 May 2018 10:09:22 -0500

SOAPaligner/soap2 is a member of the SOAP (Short Oligonucleotide Analysis Package). It is an updated version of SOAP software for short oligonucleotide alignment. The new program features in super fast and accurate alignment for huge amounts of short reads generated by Illumina/Solexa Genome Analyzer. Compared to soap v1, it is one order of magnitude faster. It require only 2 minutes aligning one million single-end reads onto the human reference genome. Another remarkable improvement of SOAPaligner is that it now supports a wide range of the read length. SOAPaligner benefitted in time and space efficiency by a revolution in the basic data structures and algorithms used.The core algorithms and the indexing data structures (2way-BWT) are developed by the algorithms research group of the Department of Computer Science, the University of Hong Kong (T.W. Lam, Alan Tam, Simon Wong, Edward Wu and S.M. Yiu).

PureCN: copy number calling and SNV classification using targeted short read sequencing

Jit — Thu, 09 Aug 2018 04:09:37 -0500

This package estimates tumor purity, copy number, and loss of heterozygosity (LOH), and classifies single nucleotide variants (SNVs) by somatic status and clonality. PureCN is designed for targeted short read sequencing data, integrates well with standard somatic variant detection and copy number pipelines, and has support for tumor samples without matching normal samples.

ONT assembly and Illumina polishing pipeline

Jit — Thu, 23 Nov 2017 10:13:42 -0600

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 using BWA mem.
Perform correction of contigs using pilon and the Illumina dataset.

dnaPipeTE: de-novo assembly & annotation Pipeline for Transposable Elements

Rahul Nayak — Sat, 02 Dec 2017 18:25:44 -0600

dnaPipeTE (for de-novo assembly & annotation Pipeline for Transposable Elements), is a pipeline designed to find, annotate and quantify Transposable Elements in small samples of NGS datasets. It is very useful to quantify the proportion of TEs in newly sequenced genomes since it does not require genome assembly and works on small datasets (< 1X).

dnaPipeTE is developped by Clément Goubert, Laurent Modolo and the TREEP team of the LBBE: http://lbbe.univ-lyon1.fr/-Equipe-Elements-transposables-.html?lang=en
You can find the original publication in GBE here: https://academic.oup.com/gbe/article/7/4/1192/533768

TRITEX sequence assembly pipeline for Triticeae genomes

Jit — Tue, 20 Aug 2019 09:47:14 -0500

The pipeline is open-source and hosted in a public Bitbucket repository.

TRITEX has been run on highly inbred genotypes of barley (Hordeum vulgare), tetraploid wheat (Triticum turgidum) and hexaploid wheat (T. aestivum) with reasonable results: super-scaffold N50 values in the range of dozens of Mb and pseudomolecules with better gene space representation than a BAC-by-BAC assembly. It has never been tested and is not expected to work on heterozygous or autopolyploid genomes.

A protocol for generating chromosome-conformation capture sequencing (Hi-C) data suitable for use with the pipeline is described in Himmelbach et al. 2018. Refer to the technical notes of 10X Genomics on how to generate Chromium data.

CSA: A high-throughput chromosome-scale assembly pipeline for vertebrate genomes

Jit — Wed, 10 Mar 2021 06:13:49 -0600

The pipeline can use information from scaffolded assemblies (for example from HiC or 10X Genomics), or even from diverged (~65-100 Mya) reference genomes for ordering the contigs and thus support the assembly process. This typically results in improved contig N50 when compared to current state of the art methods.

For smaller vertebrate genomes (~1 Gbp) chromosome scale assemblies can be achieved within 12h on high-end Desktop computers (Intel i7, 12 CPU threads, 128 GB RAM). Larger mammalian genomes (~3Gbp) can be processed within 15-18 h on server equipment (Xeon, 96 CPU threads, 1TB RAM).

The Genome 10K Project

Tue, 29 Jul 2014 09:11:04 -0500

https://genome10k.soe.ucsc.edu The Genome 10K project aims to assemble a genomic zoo—a collection of DNA sequences representing the genomes of 10,000 vertebrate species, approximately one for every vertebrate genus. The trajectory of cost reduction in DNA sequencing suggests that this project will be feasible within a few years. Capturing the genetic diversity of vertebrate species would create an unprecedented resource for the life sciences and for worldwide conservation efforts. The growing Genome 10K Community of Scientists (G10KCOS), made up of leading scientists representing major zoos, museums, research centers, and universities around the world, is dedicated to coordinating efforts in tissue specimen collection that will lay the groundwork for a large-scale sequencing and analysis project.
