Apollo: First instantaneous, collaborative genomic annotation editor available on the Web

Jit — Fri, 31 May 2019 19:55:39 -0500

Apollo is a plug-in for the JBrowse Genome Viewer.
In addition to genes and pseudogenes, users can annotate ncRNAs (snRNA, snoRNA, tRNA, rRNA), miRNAs, repeat regions, and transposable elements; each annotation type has its own configuration of the ‘Information Editor’.
History tracking with undo/redo functions is available.
Users are able to directly set an annotation to a specific state, choosing from the ‘History’ display.
Adding and updating PubMed IDs will prompt users with a publication title to confirm their submission.
Gene Ontology (GO) terms are supported and GO ID auto-completion has been incorporated.
Users may access a ‘Recent Changes’ page.
Help page with Apollo specific content is available.

Phytozome v12.1: plant science community hub for accessing palnts genomic data

Surabhi Chaudhary — Tue, 17 Mar 2020 07:30:17 -0500

Phytozome, the Plant Comparative Genomics portal of the Department of Energy's Joint Genome Institute, provides JGI users and the broader plant science community a hub for accessing, visualizing and analyzing JGI-sequenced plant genomes, as well as selected genomes and datasets that have been sequenced elsewhere. As of release v12.1.6, Phytozome hosts 93 assembled and annotated genomes, from 82 Viridiplantae species. More than half of these genomes have been sequenced, assembled and/or annotated with JGI Plant Science program resources. By integrating this large collection of plant genomes into a single resource and performing comprehensive and uniform annotation and analyses, Phytozome facilitates accurate and insightful comparative genomics studies.

Which are the best statistical programming languages to study for a bioinformatician?

Jitendra Narayan — Wed, 10 Jul 2013 14:35:34 -0500

In Bio-informatics based genome sequencing and predicting metabolic pathways research jobs I used Matlab, SAS, SPSS, R and several Bioconductor packages. Matlab had a lot of powerful tools and was easy to use, whereas SPSS is for non-programmers and R need programming skills. I am wondering what other people think is best? or there might not be one specific language but a few that lend themselves best to Bio-informatics work that is math heavy and deals with a large amount of data.
