HGT-Finder: A New Tool for Horizontal Gene Transfer Finding and Application to Aspergillus genomes

Jit — Wed, 17 Jan 2018 05:03:19 -0600

HGT-Finder:

(i) can be used for HGT detection in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes,

(ii) can report a statistical P value for each gene to indicate how likely it is to be horizontally transferred, and

(iii) is fully automated (requires minimal human intervention), as well as very easy to install and run.

Panacus : A Counting Tool for Pangenome Graphs

Neel — Fri, 14 Jun 2024 14:42:28 -0500

panacus is a tool for calculating statistics for GFA files. It supports GFA files with P and W lines, but requires that the graph is blunt, i.e., nodes do not overlap and consequently, each link (L) points from the end of one segment (S) to the start of another.

panacus supports the following calculations:

coverage histogram
pangenome growth statistics
path-/group-resolved coverage table

FQC Dashboard: Integrates FastQC results into a web-based, interactive, and extensible FASTQ quality control tool

Shruti Paniwala — Tue, 10 Nov 2020 01:30:22 -0600

FQC is software that facilitates quality control of FASTQ files by carrying out a QC protocol using FastQC, parsing results, and aggregating quality metrics into an interactive dashboard designed to richly summarize individual sequencing runs. The dashboard groups samples in dropdowns for navigation among the data sets, utilizes human-readable configuration files to manipulate the pages and tabs, and is extensible with CSV data.

Perlbrew: admin-free perl installation management tool.

Jit — Wed, 12 Jul 2017 03:53:08 -0500

perlbrew is an admin-free perl installation management tool. The latest version is 0.79, read the release note: Release 0.79.

Copy & Paste this line into your terminal:

\curl -L https://install.perlbrew.pl | bash

Or, if your system does not have curl but something else:

# Linux
\wget -O - https://install.perlbrew.pl | bash

# FreeBSD
\fetch -o- https://install.perlbrew.pl | sh

If you prefer to install with cpan, there are two steps:

sudo cpan App::perlbrew
perlbrew init

If it is installed with cpan, the perlbrew executable should be installed as /usr/bin/perlbrew or /usr/local/bin/perlbrew. For all users who want to use perlbrew, a prior perlbrew init needs to be executed.

The default perlbrew root directory is ~/perl5/perlbrew, which can be changed by setting PERLBREW_ROOTenvironment variable before the installation and initialization. For more advanced installation process, please read the perlbrew document.

Synima: Synteny Imaging tool

Jit — Sun, 10 Dec 2017 17:03:48 -0600

Synteny Imaging tool (Synima) written in Perl, which uses the graphical features of R. Synima takes orthologues computed from reciprocal best BLAST hits or OrthoMCL, and DAGchainer, and outputs an overview of genome-wide synteny in PDF. Each of these programs are included with the Synima package, and a pipeline for their use. Synima has a range of graphical parameters including size, colours, order, and labels, which are specified in a config file generated by the first run of Synima – and can be subsequently edited. Synima runs quickly on a command line to generate informative and publication quality figures. Synima is open source and freely available from https://github.com/rhysf/Synima under the MIT License.

Multi-CAR: a tool of contig scaffolding using multiple references

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 06 Mar 2018 16:39:41 -0600

we design a simple heuristic method to further revise our single reference-based scaffolding tool CAR into a new one called Multi-CAR such that it can utilize multiple complete genomes of related organisms as references to more accurately order and orient the contigs of a draft genome. In practical usage, our Multi-CAR does not require prior knowledge concerning phylogenetic relationships among the draft and reference genomes and libraries of paired-end reads. To validate Multi-CAR, we have tested it on a real dataset composed of several prokaryotic genomes and also compared its accuracy performance with other multiple reference-based scaffolding tools Ragout and MeDuSa.

D-GENIES: A tool for Dotplot large Genomes in an Interactive, Efficient and Simple way

Jit — Mon, 11 Jun 2018 09:41:22 -0500

D-GENIES – for Dotplot large Genomes in an Interactive, Efficient and Simple way – is an online tool designed to compare two genomes. It supports large genome and you can interact with the dot plot to improve the visualisation. We use minimap version 2 to align the two genomes. Then, the PAF file is parsed and plotted into an interactive plot written with d3.js library. D-Genies also allows to display dot plots from other aligners by uploading their PAF or MAF alignment file. http://dgenies.toulouse.inra.fr/
