Genome assembly is a powerful process that transforms raw sequencing data into a coherent representation of an organism’s genome. By following this step-by-step guide, you can successfully assemble genomes and uncover valuable biological insights....

dagchainer.sourceforge.net - The DAGchainer software computes chains of syntenic genes found within complete genome sequences. As input, DAGchainer accepts a list of gene pairs with sequence homology along with their genome coordinates. Using a scoring function which accounts...

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov - While the number of sequenced diploid genomes have been steadily increasing in the last few years, assembly of highly polymorphic (HP) diploid genomes remains challenging. As a result, there is a shortage of tools for assembling HP genomes from the...

This study reports sequence from 1,267 individuals that includes 598 individuals representing 55 ethnic groups that span the major language groups across India.

github.com - Shovill is a pipeline which uses SPAdes at its core, but alters the steps before and after the primary assembly step to get similar results in less time. Shovill also supports other assemblers like SKESA, Velvet and Megahit, so you can take...

sourceforge.net - Meraculous is a whole genome assembler for Next Generation Sequencing data geared for large genomes. It is a hybrid k-mer/read-based assembler that capitalizes on the high accuracy of Illumina sequence by eschewing an explicit error correction step...

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT), the “non-sexual movement of genetic material between two organisms” , is relatively common in prokaryotes and single-celled eukaryotes, but a number of factors combine to make it far rarer in...

github.com - The mmgenome toolbox enables reproducible extraction of individual genomes from metagenomes. It builds on the multi-metagenome concept, but wraps most of the process of extracting genomes in simple R functions. Thereby making the whole...

github.com - The major problem of scaffolding polyploid genome is that Hi-C signals are frequently detected between allelic haplotypes and any existing stat of art Hi-C scaffolding program links the allelic haplotypes together. To solve the problem, we developed...

github.com - An increasing number of phased (i.e. with resolved haplotypes) reference genomes are available. However, most genetic variant calling tools do not explicitly account for haplotype structure. Here, we present HaploTypo, a pipeline tailored to resolve...
