NovoGraph: building whole genome graphs from long-read-based de novo assemblies

An algorithmically novel approach to construct a genome graph representation of long-read-based de novo sequence assemblies. We then provide a proof of principle by creating a genome graph of seven ethnically-diverse human genomes.

Liftoff: an accurate tool that maps annotations in GFF or GTF between assemblies

Jit — Tue, 30 Jun 2020 21:40:52 -0500

Liftoff, an accurate tool that maps annotations in GFF or GTF between assemblies of the same, or closely-related species. Unlike current coordinate lift-over tools which require a pre-generated “chain” file as input, Liftoff is a standalone tool that takes two genome assemblies and a reference annotation as input and outputs an annotation of the target genome.

poRe: an R package for the visualization and analysis of nanopore sequencing data

Jit — Thu, 23 Nov 2017 09:55:57 -0600

Motivation: The Oxford Nanopore MinION device represents a unique sequencing technology. As a mobile sequencing device powered by the USB port of a laptop, the MinION has huge potential applications. To enable these applications, the bioinformatics community will need to design and build a suite of tools specifically for MinION data.

Results: Here we present poRe, a package for R that enables users to manipulate, organize, summarize and visualize MinION nanopore sequencing data. As a package for R, poRe has been tested on Windows, Linux and MacOSX. Crucially, the Windows version allows users to analyse MinION data on the Windows laptop attached to the device.

Availability and implementation: poRe is released as a package for R at http://sourceforge.net/projects/rpore/ . A tutorial and further information are available at https://sourceforge.net/p/rpore/wiki/Home/

AfterQC: Automatic Filtering, Trimming, Error Removing and Quality Control for fastq data

Jit — Fri, 29 Jun 2018 03:26:03 -0500

Automatic Filtering, Trimming, Error Removing and Quality Control for fastq data AfterQC can simply go through all fastq files in a folder and then output three folders: good, bad and QC folders, which contains good reads, bad reads and the QC results of each fastq file/pair. Currently it supports processing data from HiSeq 2000/2500/3000/4000, Nextseq 500/550, MiniSeq...and other Illumina 1.8 or newer formats The author has reimplemented this tool in C++ with multithreading support to make it much faster. The new tool is called fastp and can be found at: https://github.com/OpenGene/fastp . If you prefer a C++ based tool, please use fastp instead. https://github.com/OpenGene/AfterQC

SeqMonk:A tool to visualise and analyse high throughput mapped sequence data

Jit — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 04:39:38 -0500

SeqMonk is a program to enable the visualisation and analysis of mapped sequence data. It was written for use with mapped next generation sequence data but can in theory be used for any dataset which can be expressed as a series of genomic positions. It's main features are:

Import of mapped data from mapped data (BAM/SAM/bowtie etc)
Creation of data groups for visualisation and analysis
Visualisation of mapped regions against an annotated genome.
Flexible quantitation of the mapped data to allow comparisons between data sets
Statistical analysis of data to find regions of interest
Creation of reports containing data and genome annotation

Phytozome v12.1: plant science community hub for accessing palnts genomic data

Surabhi Chaudhary — Tue, 17 Mar 2020 07:30:17 -0500

Phytozome, the Plant Comparative Genomics portal of the Department of Energy's Joint Genome Institute, provides JGI users and the broader plant science community a hub for accessing, visualizing and analyzing JGI-sequenced plant genomes, as well as selected genomes and datasets that have been sequenced elsewhere. As of release v12.1.6, Phytozome hosts 93 assembled and annotated genomes, from 82 Viridiplantae species. More than half of these genomes have been sequenced, assembled and/or annotated with JGI Plant Science program resources. By integrating this large collection of plant genomes into a single resource and performing comprehensive and uniform annotation and analyses, Phytozome facilitates accurate and insightful comparative genomics studies.
