	<description><![CDATA[<p>Genomicus is a genome browser that enables users to navigate in genomes in several dimensions: linearly along chromosome axes, transversaly across different species, and chronologicaly along evolutionary time.</p>
<p>Once a query gene has been entered, it is displayed in its genomic context in parallel to the genomic context of all its orthologous and paralogous copies in all the other sequenced metazoan genomes. Moreover, Genomicus stores and displays the predicted ancestral genome structure in all the ancestral species within the phylogenetic range of interest.</p>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Bandage (a Bioinformatics Application for Navigating&nbsp;<em>De&nbsp;novo</em>&nbsp;Assembly Graphs Easily) is a tool for visualizing assembly graphs with connections. Users can zoom in to specific areas of the graph and interact with it by moving nodes, adding labels, changing colors and extracting sequences. BLAST searches can be performed within the Bandage graphical user interface and the hits are displayed as highlights in the graph. By displaying connections between contigs, Bandage presents new possibilities for analyzing&nbsp;<em>de novo</em>&nbsp;assemblies that are not possible through investigation of contigs alone.</p>
<p><strong>Availability and implementation:</strong>&nbsp;Source code and binaries are freely available at&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/rrwick/Bandage" target="pmc_ext">https://github.com/rrwick/Bandage</a>. Bandage is implemented in C++ and supported on Linux, OS X and Windows.

	<description><![CDATA[<p>MECAT is an ultra-fast Mapping, Error Correction and de novo Assembly Tools for single molecula sequencing (SMRT) reads. MECAT employs novel alignment and error correction algorithms that are much more efficient than the state of art of aligners and error correction tools. MECAT can be used for effectively de novo assemblying large genomes. For example, on a 32-thread computer with 2.0 GHz CPU , MECAT takes 9.5 days to assemble a human genome based on 54x SMRT data, which is 40 times faster than the current&nbsp;<a href="http://cbcb.umd.edu/software/pbcr/mhap/">PBcR-Mhap pipeline</a>. MECAT performance were compared with&nbsp;<a href="http://cbcb.umd.edu/software/pbcr/mhap/">PBcR-Mhap pipeline</a>,&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/PacificBiosciences/falcon">FALCON</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="http://canu.readthedocs.io/en/latest/">Canu(v1.3)</a>&nbsp;in five real datasets. The quality of assembled contigs produced by MECAT is the same or better than that of the&nbsp;<a href="http://cbcb.umd.edu/software/pbcr/mhap/">PBcR-Mhap pipeline</a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/PacificBiosciences/falcon">FALCON</a>.&nbsp;</p>

	<description><![CDATA[ChopStitch is a new method for finding putative exons and constructing splice graphs using an assembled transcriptome and whole genome shotgun sequencing (WGSS) data. ChopStitch identifies exon-exon boundaries in de novo assembled RNA-seq data with the help of a Bloom filter that represents the k-mer spectrum of WGSS reads. The algorithm also detects base substitutions in transcript sequences corresponding to sequencing or assembly errors, haplotype variations, or putative RNA editing events. The primary output of our tool is a FASTA file containing putative exons. Further, exon edges are interrogated for alternative exon-exon boundaries to detect transcript isoforms, which are reported as splice graphs in dot output format.<p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/bcgsc/ChopStitch" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/bcgsc/ChopStitch</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>FYI, I've found it useful to use MUMmer to extract the specific changes that Racon makes, so I can evaluate them individually:</p><pre><code>minimap -t 24 assembly.fasta long_reads.fastq.gz | racon -t 24 long_reads.fastq.gz - assembly.fasta racon_assembly.fasta
nucmer -p nucmer assembly.fasta racon_assembly.fasta
show-snps -C -T -r nucmer.delta
</code></pre><p>This reports Racon's changes in a table. You can exclude indels with the&nbsp;<code>-I</code>&nbsp;option in&nbsp;<code>show-snps</code>.&nbsp;</p><p>This process (Racon -&gt; MUMmer -&gt; SNP table) solves the problem I originally raised in this issue. So as far as I'm concerned, you can close this issue (or keep it open if you still want to implement some kind of variant table).</p>]]></description>
