github.com - GTDB-Tk is a software toolkit for assigning objective taxonomic classifications to bacterial and archaeal genomes. It is computationally efficient and designed to work with recent advances that allow hundreds or thousands of metagenome-assembled...

tritexassembly.bitbucket.io - 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...

github.com - Welcome to kevlar, software for predicting de novo genetic variants without mapping reads to a reference genome! kevlar's k-mer abundance based method calls single nucleotide variants (SNVs), multinucleotide variants (MNVs),...

github.com - Contig Annotation Tool (CAT) and Bin Annotation Tool (BAT) are pipelines for the taxonomic classification of long DNA sequences and metagenome assembled genomes (MAGs/bins) of both known and (highly) unknown microorganisms, as generated by...

A research team published a dataset of 363 genomes from approximately 92 percent of bird families and showed the significance of sampling dense organisms for biodiversity research.

orthovenn3.bioinfotoolkits.net - OrthoVenn3 is a powerful tool for comparative genomics analysis, used as a web server for full genome comparisons, annotation, and evolutionary analysis of orthologous clusters across multiple species. It has already been used by thousands of users...

Asaf Levy hiring a postdoctoral fellow for a large-scale microbial comparative genomics project at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (Israel). The project is a continuation of Levy Asaf et al. Nature Genetics 2018 paper. Requirements:...

analog -- A feature that appears similar in two taxa which have originated from two different ancestors. ancestor -- Any organism, population, or species from which some other organism, population, or species is descended by...

During recombination, the precise breakage of each strand, exchange between the strands, and sealing of the resulting recombined molecules happens. The “chromosomal breakpoints” refers to these places where they break.

We are generally interested in the mechanisms of species origin from a molecular and ecological perspective. Particularly, we are interested in the role of sex chromosomes in speciation. Most of our research is done on birds and mammals. Currently,...
