sourceforge.net - AIRVF that works on flowgram, raw and mapped reads and called variants to reduce artifact-driven false variant calls. Tests on sequencing data of standard reference material showed up to ∼98% reduction of false variants when combined to...
github.com - ALPACA requires Celera Assembler 8.3 or later. It is recommended to build Celera Assembler from source. (Why? The pre-built binaries CA_8.3rc1 and CA8.3rc2 will work for any large data set.

github.com - HapCUT2 is a maximum-likelihood-based tool for assembling haplotypes from DNA sequence reads, designed to "just work" with excellent speed and accuracy. We found that previously described haplotype assembly methods are specialized for specific read...
japsa.readthedocs.io - npScarf (jsa.np.npscarf) is a program that connect contigs from a draft genomes to generate sequences that are closer to finish. These pipelines can run on a single laptop for microbial datasets. In real-time mode, it can be integrated with simple...
github.com - indexcov, an efficient estimator of whole-genome sequencing coverage to rapidly identify samples with aberrant coverage profiles, reveal large-scale chromosomal anomalies, recognize potential batch effects, and infer the sex of a...
code.google.com - d2Tools are the toolbox for counting the frequency of K-tuple from sequencing datasets and then calculating the pairwise dissimilarity matrix between samples with the d2-style(d2/d2*/d2S representing d2/d2Star/d2shepp, respectively)...
MGI, a subsidiary of global genomics leader BGI Group, announced pricing and its first early access customer for the new ultra high-throughput sequencer, MGISEQ-T7, saying it has driven down sequencing cost to $5 per gigabyte
github.com - jackalope simply and efficiently simulates (i) variants from reference genomes and (ii) reads from both Illumina and Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) platforms. It can either read reference genomes from FASTA files or simulate new ones. Genomic variants...
