There are numerous genome assembly tools available, each with its strengths and weaknesses. Here is a list of some widely used genome assembly tools as of my last update in September 2021: SPAdes: An assembler specifically designed for...

bioinformatics.ua.pt - Smash is a completely alignment-free method/tool to find and visualise genomic rearrangements. The detection is based on conditional exclusive compression, namely using a FCM (Markov model), of high context order (typically 20). For...

www.broadinstitute.org - Spines is a collection of software tools, developed and used by the Vertebrate Genome Biology Group at the Broad Institute. It provides basic data structures for efficient data manipulation (mostly genomic sequences, alignments, variation...

www.australianprostatecentre.org - Circos plot tool (J-Circos) that is an interactive visualization tool that can plot Circos figures, as well as being able to dynamically add data to the figure, and providing information for specific data points using mouse hover display and zoom...

github.com - DIAMOND is a sequence aligner for protein and translated DNA searches and functions as a drop-in replacement for the NCBI BLAST software tools. It is suitable for protein-protein search as well as DNA-protein search on short reads and longer...

github.com - Progressive Cactus is a whole-genome alignment package. Distribution package for the Prgressive Cactus multiple genome aligner. Dependencies are linked as submodules https://github.com/glennhickey/progressiveCactus

hciweb.iwr.uni-heidelberg.de - This is the c++ implementation for SIMA - Simultaneous Multiple Alignment of LC/MS Peak Lists. The package contains C++ source code as well as two binary files. The latter were tested under various operating systems, including Windows XP SP3 32bit,...

www.healthcare.uiowa.edu - Added Command line argument support. Multi-stage execution modes. Support for parallelization. Now execution proceeds in batches of long reads the size of which can be set by --long_read_batch_size N. Better compressed intermediate files. Added...

github.com - Perform Alignment-free k-tuple frequency comparisons from sequences. This can be in the form of two input files (e.g. a reference and a query) or a single file for pairwise comparisons to be made.

The Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) is a powerful bioinformatics program used to compare an input sequence (such as DNA, RNA, or protein sequences) against a database of sequences to find regions of similarity.
