P10K: The Protist 10,000 Genomes

BioStar — Sat, 06 Jul 2024 08:29:30 -0500

The Protist 10,000 Genomes (P10K) Project aims to decipher the genome sequences and construct a comprehensive database resource containing over 10,000 species of protists, encompassing representatives from every major clade. Samples were collected from diverse habitats, and the genome information was acquired through de novo sequencing, genome re-annotation, and integration of publicly available data. Serving as a centralized data portal for the project, the P10K database primarily focuses on delivering high-quality curation and facilitating efficient retrieval of protist genome data.

GView: A Java application for viewing and examining prokaryotic genomes in a circular or linear context

Abhimanyu Singh — Fri, 14 Jul 2017 07:47:03 -0500

GView is a Java application for viewing and examining prokaryotic genomes in a circular or linear context. It accepts standard sequence file formats and an optional style specification file to generate customizable, publication quality genome maps in bitmap and scalable vector graphics formats. GView features an interactive pan-and-zoom interface, a command-line interface for incorporation in genome analysis pipelines, and a public Application Programming Interface for incorporation in other Java applications.

kSNP3.0: SNP detection and phylogenetic analysis of genomes without genome alignment or reference genome

Jit — Fri, 08 Dec 2017 16:48:40 -0600

Sept. 20, 2017 Version 3.1 released. Major upgrade. Version 3.1 fixes the problems with SNP annotation that arose when NCBI discontinued use of GI numbers. Please read carefully the Preface (page 3) and the File of annotated genomes section (pages 9-10) in the version 3.1 User Guide. Thanks to Tom Slezak for revsing the get_genbank_file3 script and to Tod Stuber (USDA) for testing version 3.1 even though he doesn't need the annotation feature. All users are encouraged to upgrade to version 3.1.

Tallymer: method to compute K-mer frequencies and its application to annotate large repetitive plant genomes

Jit — Thu, 15 Feb 2018 10:21:02 -0600

Tallymer is based on enhanced suffix arrays. This gives a much larger flexibility concerning the choice of the k-mer size. Tallymer can process large data sizes of several billion bases. We used it in a variety of applications to study the genomes of maize and other plant species. In particular, Tallymer was used to index a set whole genome shotgun sequences from maize (B73) (total size 10⁹ bp).
Tallymer was effective in a variety of applications to aid genome annotation in maize, despite limitations imposed by the relatively low coverage of sequence available.

A manual can be found here.

Ranbow: a haplotype assembler for polyploid genomes

Jit — Fri, 01 Jun 2018 07:21:54 -0500

Ranbow is a haplotype assembler for polyploid genomes. It has been developed for the haplotype assembly of the hexaploid sweet potato genome, which is highly heterozygous. Ranbow can also be applied to other polyploid genomes. After a first phasing, Ranbow utilizes the assembled haplotypes to improve the accuracy of variant calling results and to infer the evolutionary history of the organism´s genome. Ranbow has three main modes of function: ranbow hap: for haplotyping ranbow eval: for evaluating of the assemble haplotypes by gold standard (long) reads ranbow phylo: for the phylogenetic analysis

CSBFinder: Discovery of colinear syntenic blocks across thousands of prokaryotic genomes

Jit — Wed, 24 Oct 2018 22:12:27 -0500

CSBFinder is a standalone Desktop java application with a graphical user interface, that can also be executed via command line.

CSBFinder implements a novel methodology for the discovery, ranking, and taxonomic distribution analysis of colinear syntenic blocks (CSBs) - groups of genes that are consistently located close to each other, in the same order, across a wide range of taxa. CSBFinder incorporates an efficient algorithm that identifies CSBs in large genomic datasets. The discovered CSBs are ranked according to a probabilistic score and clustered to families according to their gene content similarity.

Chromonomer: a tool set for repairing and enhancing assembled genomes through integration of genetic maps and conserved synteny

Jit — Mon, 17 Feb 2020 05:38:46 -0600

Chromonomer is a program designed to integrate a genome assembly with a genetic map. Chromonomer tries very hard to identify and remove markers that are out of order in the genetic map, when considered against their local assembly order; and to identify scaffolds that have been incorrectly assembled according to the genetic map, and split those scaffolds.
