	<description><![CDATA[<p dir="auto">This tool extracts heterozygous kmer pairs from kmer count databases and performs gymnastics with them. We are able to disentangle genome structure by comparing the sum of kmer pair coverages (CovA + CovB) to their relative coverage (CovB / (CovA + CovB)). Such an approach also allows us to analyze obscure genomes with duplications, various ploidy levels, etc.</p>
<p dir="auto">Smudgeplots are computed from raw or even better from trimmed reads and show the haplotype structure using heterozygous kmer pairs. For example:</p>

	<title><![CDATA[KisSplice]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>KisSplice is a software that enables to analyse RNA-seq data with or without a reference genome. It is an exact local transcriptome assembler that allows to identify SNPs, indels and alternative splicing events. It can deal with an arbitrary number of biological conditions, and will quantify each variant in each condition. It has been tested on Illumina datasets of up to 1G reads. Its memory consumption is around 5Gb for 100M reads.</p>
<p>KisSplice is not a full-length transcriptome assembler. This means that it will output the variable regions of the transcripts, not reconstruct them entirely.</p>
<p>KisSplice comes as a workflow, with several possible post-treatments meant to facilitate the analysis of the results. The choice of the post-treatment depends on the availability of a reference genome/transcriptome and on the need to perform a differential analysis, as summarised in the following table.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://kissplice.prabi.fr/" rel="nofollow">http://kissplice.prabi.fr/</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Function</p>
<p>WiseScaffolder is a stand-alone semi-automatic application for genome scaffolding of pre-assembled contigs using mate-pair data. It also produces editable scaffold maps, allowing either to build gapped scaffolds or usable as a common thread for the manual improvement of scaffolds.</p>
<p>Description&nbsp;</p>
<p>WiseScaffolder includes 4 subcommands: dumpconfig generates a configuration file that notably specifies the average insert size of the mate-pair library preprocess allows the detection and correction of chimerae, the estimation of contigs copy number and produces valuable outputs for the manual improvement of scaffolds scaffold constitutes the central scaffold-builder and comprises two modules:</p>
<p>i) the interative_scaffold_extender, which works with big, unambiguous contigs, or when they run out, single copy contigs, and</p>
<p>ii) the small_contig_inserter, which inserts the small contigs within scaffolds buildfasta converts the scaffold(s) map(s) into Fasta sequences.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://abims.sb-roscoff.fr/wisescaffolder" rel="nofollow">http://abims.sb-roscoff.fr/wisescaffolder</a></p>]]></description>
