d3Network:Tools for creating D3 JavaScript network, tree, dendrogram, and Sankey graphs from R.

Jit — Fri, 06 Apr 2018 12:10:45 -0500

Mike Bostock’s D3.js is great for creating interactive network graphs with JavaScript. The d3Network package makes it easy to create these network graphs from R. The main idea is that you should able to take an R data frame with information about the relationships between members of a network and create full network graphs with one command.

‘dockr’: the R container

Jit — Mon, 23 Dec 2019 09:56:49 -0600

dockr 0.8.6 is now available on CRAN. dockr is a minimal toolkit to build a lightweight Docker container image for your R package, in which the package itself is available. The Docker image seeks to mirror your R session as close as possible with respect to R specific dependencies. Both dependencies on CRAN R packages as well as local non-CRAN R packages will be included in the Docker container image.

If you want to know, how Docker works, and why you should consider using Docker, please take a look at the Docker website.

Circular plots in R

Jit — Mon, 19 Jun 2017 06:20:27 -0500

Circular plots are useful to represent complicated informations. They are used in 2 specific cases: when you have long axis and numerous categories, and when you want to show relationships between elements. The circos gallery displays several examples of circular plots, what gives a nice overview of the possibilities. Circos is the most famous

tool to create circular plots. Thanks to Zuguang Gu, the Circlize library makes the circos functions available in R! It implements low-level graphic functions for adding common graphics in a circular layout. This page aims to learn you how to use the library, so I strongly advise to read the graphics in the proposed order!

CGView.js is a Circular Genome Viewing tool for visualizing and interacting with small genomes. This software is an adaptation of the Java program CGView.

CGView.js is the genome viewer of Proksee, an expert system for genome assembly, annotation and visualization.

Features

Circular and linear views of genomes
Capable of drawing genomes up to 10 Mbp with 1000's of features and 100's contigs
Smooth zooming down to the sequence level
Easily generate features and plots directly form the sequence (e.g. ORFs, GC-content and GC-Skew)
Save high resolution PNG maps up to 8000x8000px
Fully documented API for interacting with CGView.js maps

Panacus : A Counting Tool for Pangenome Graphs

Neel — Fri, 14 Jun 2024 14:42:28 -0500

panacus is a tool for calculating statistics for GFA files. It supports GFA files with P and W lines, but requires that the graph is blunt, i.e., nodes do not overlap and consequently, each link (L) points from the end of one segment (S) to the start of another.

panacus supports the following calculations:

coverage histogram
pangenome growth statistics
path-/group-resolved coverage table

GfaViz: flexible and interactive visualization of GFA sequence graphs

Jit — Thu, 23 Jan 2020 07:33:46 -0600

GFA (Graphical Fragment Assembly) is an emerging standard format for representing sequence graphs. Although it was originally conceived as a format for sequence assembly (hence the name), and this remains its core application, it is more general, and able to represent many different types of sequence graphs, including scaffolding graphs, alignment graphs, variant graphs and splicing graphs.

DendroPy: a Python library for phylogenetic computing

Seema Singh — Mon, 23 Apr 2018 05:49:50 -0500

DendroPy is a Python library for phylogenetic computing. It provides classes and functions for the simulation, processing, and manipulation of phylogenetic trees and character matrices, and supports the reading and writing of phylogenetic data in a range of formats, such as NEXUS, NEWICK, NeXML, Phylip, FASTA, etc. Application scripts for performing some useful phylogenetic operations, such as data conversion and tree posterior distribution summarization, are also distributed and installed as part of the libary. DendroPy can thus function as a stand-alone library for phylogenetics, a component of more complex multi-library phyloinformatic pipelines, or as a scripting “glue” that assembles and drives such pipelines.

The primary home page for DendroPy, with detailed tutorials and documentation, is at:

http://dendropy.org/

DendroPy is also hosted in the official Python repository:

http://packages.python.org/DendroPy/

Requirements and Installation

DendroPy 4.x runs under Python 3 (all versions > 3.1) and Python 2 (Python 2.7 only).

You can install DendroPy by running:

More information is available here:

http://dendropy.org/downloading.html

Documentation

slacTree: SVG Large Annotated Circular Tree drawing

Jit — Mon, 03 Jul 2017 08:02:56 -0500

A simple, extensible, Perl script for producing figures of large phylogenetic trees.

While there are many other tree drawing programs, slacTree was originally written in 2009 to fill a need for producing publication quality figures of circular trees with more than 1000 taxa with custom annotations
Because it is a single Perl script with very few dependencies, it is easy to run, and easy to further customize
SVG is used because it is a scalable format allowing for very small representations of entire trees or highly magnified regions with unlimited resolution
Circular and radial trees are more compact than linear representations
