Hagfish - assess an assembly through creative use of coverage plots

Abhi — Fri, 20 May 2016 19:08:17 -0500

Hagfish is a tool that is to be used in data analysis of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) experiments. Hagfish builds on the concept of coverage plots and aims to assist (amongst others) in quality control of de novo genome assembly or identification of structural variation in a genome re-sequencing experiment.

Hagfish requires a reference sequence and a paired end re-sequencing data set. Hagfish has more power the larger the insert size of the paired end library is.

CRBHits: From Conditional Reciprocal Best Hits to Codon Alignments and Ka/Ks in R

Shruti Paniwala — Wed, 11 Nov 2020 23:06:03 -0600

CRBHits is a coding sequence (CDS) analysis pipeline in R (R Core Team, 2019). It reimplements the Conditional Reciprocal Best Hit (CRBH) algorithm crb-blast and covers all necessary steps from sequence similarity searches, codon alignments to Ka/Ks calculations and synteny. The new R package targets ecology, population and evolutionary biologists working in the field of comparative genomics.

Lifemap

Jit — Mon, 10 Apr 2017 05:42:37 -0500

Lifemap is an interactive tool to explore the WHOLE NCBI TAXONOMY. The concept used in Lifemap is similar to the one used in cartography with tools like Google Maps© or Open Street Maps: exploring is done by zooming and panning.

The current tree contains ALL species present in NCBI taxonomy as of October 18th, 2016: 1,135,169 species including 10,545 Archaea, 418,777 Bacteria and 705,847 Eukaryotes. The Lifemap tree is updated every two weeks.

All the nodes in the tree are clickable. This displays various information and options:

The species name (and the associated common name if there is one)
The rank (kingdom, family, class, species...)
Ability to go to the corresponding node/species on NCBI web site (displayed in a new window)
Possibility to download the corresponding subtree in newick extended format
Possibilty to get the whole lineage from the current node/tip to the root of the tree.

D-GENIES: A tool for Dotplot large Genomes in an Interactive, Efficient and Simple way

Jit — Mon, 11 Jun 2018 09:41:22 -0500

D-GENIES – for Dotplot large Genomes in an Interactive, Efficient and Simple way – is an online tool designed to compare two genomes. It supports large genome and you can interact with the dot plot to improve the visualisation. We use minimap version 2 to align the two genomes. Then, the PAF file is parsed and plotted into an interactive plot written with d3.js library. D-Genies also allows to display dot plots from other aligners by uploading their PAF or MAF alignment file. http://dgenies.toulouse.inra.fr/

SynVisio: An Interactive Multiscale Synteny Visualization Tool for McScanX.

Jit — Sun, 31 May 2020 02:01:14 -0500

SynVisio lets you explore the results of McScanX a popular synteny and collinearity detection toolkit and generate publication ready images.

SynVisio requires two files to run:

The simplified gff file that was used as an input for a McScanX query.
The collinearity file generated as an output by McScanX for the same input query.
Optional track file in bedgraph format to annotate the generated charts.

SynVisio offers different types of visualizations such as Linear Parallel plots, Hive plots, Stacked Parallel Plots and Dot plots. Users can configure the type of plots required and then choose the source and the target chromosomes that need to be mapped. Users also have option to download the generated visualizations in publication ready SVG or PNG formats.

Dot, an interactive viewer for genome-genome comparison

Jit — Sun, 14 Jan 2018 11:57:34 -0600

Dot, an interactive dot plot viewer that allows genome scientists to visualize genome-genome alignments in order to evaluate new assemblies and perform exploratory comparative genomics.

Dot supports the output of MUMmer’s nucmer aligner the most commonly used software method for aligning genome assemblies. A quick script called DotPrep.py converts the delta file to a more streamlined coordinates file with an index that enables Dot to read in more alignments in certain regions on demand.

S-plot2: creates an interactive, two-dimensional heatmap of sequences

Jit — Fri, 28 Sep 2018 05:36:19 -0500

S-plot2 creates an interactive, two-dimensional heatmap capturing the similarities and dissimilarities in nucleotide usage between genomic sequences (partial or complete). In S-plot2, whole eukaryotic chromosomes and smaller prokaryotic genomes can be efficiently compared. The tool includes functionality to extract, analyze, and automate BLAST queries of regions of interest within the heatmap. This facilitates the investigation of quickly evolving coding regions, novel coding regions, and laterally transferred elements.

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.

Clustergrammer is a web-based tool for visualizing high-dimensional data as an interactive and shareable hierarchically clustered heatmap

BioStar — Sun, 23 Aug 2020 19:30:17 -0500

Clustergrammer is a web-based tool for visualizing high-dimensional data (e.g. a matrix) as an interactive and shareable hierarchically clustered heatmap. Clustergrammer's front end (Clustergrammer-JS) is built using D3.js and its back-end (Clustergrammer-PY) is built using Python. Clustergrammer produces highly interactive visualizations that enable intuitive exploration of high-dimensional data and has several biology-specific features (e.g. enrichment analysis, see Biology-Specific Features) to facilitate the exploration of gene-level biological data.
