	<title><![CDATA[FERMI]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>Fermi is a de novo assembler with a particular focus on assembling Illumina&nbsp;</span><span>short sequence reads from a mammal-sized genome. In addition to the role of a&nbsp;</span><span>typical assembler, fermi also aims to preserve heterozygotes which are often&nbsp;</span><span>collapsed by other assemblers. Its ultimate goal is to find a minimal set of</span><br><span>unitigs to represent all the information in raw reads.</span><br><br><span>Fermi follows the overlap-layout-consensus paradigm and uses the FM-DNA-index&nbsp;</span><span>(FMD-index) as the key data structure. It is inspired by the string graph&nbsp;</span><span>assembler (Simpson and Durbin, 2010 and 2012) and has a similar workflow.</span><br><br><span>As a typical de novo assembler, fermi tends to produce contigs with slightly&nbsp;</span><span>longer N50. However, the major weakness of fermi is the high misassembly rate.&nbsp;</span><span>Although fermi provides a tool to fix misassemblies by using paired-end reads&nbsp;</span><span>to achieve an accuracy comparable to other assemblers, this is not a favorable&nbsp;</span><span>solution.</span><br><br><span>Fermi is designed to be used on a multi-core Linux machine with large shared&nbsp;</span><span>memory. The easiest way to run fermi is to use the run-fermi.pl script. It&nbsp;</span><span>generates a Makefile. The actual assembly is done by invoking make. Premature&nbsp;</span><span>assembly processes can be resumed. Here is an example:</span><br><br><span>run-fermi.pl -dAPe ./fermi -p NA12878 -t16 -f18 reads*.fq.gz &gt; NA12878.mak</span><br><span>make -f NA12878.mak -j16</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/lh3/fermi" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/lh3/fermi</a></p>]]></description>

	<title><![CDATA[Shinyheatmap]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>Background: Transcriptomics, metabolomics, metagenomics, and other various next-generation sequencing (-omics) fields are known for their production of large datasets. Visualizing such big data has posed technical challenges in biology, both in terms of available computational resources as well as programming acumen. Since heatmaps are used to depict high-dimensional numerical data as a colored grid of cells, efficiency and speed have often proven to be critical considerations in the process of successfully converting data into graphics. For example, rendering interactive heatmaps from large input datasets (e.g., 100k+ rows) has been computationally infeasible on both desktop computers and web browsers. In addition to memory requirements, programming skills and knowledge have frequently been barriers-to-entry for creating highly customizable heatmaps. Results: We propose shinyheatmap: an advanced user-friendly heatmap software suite capable of efficiently creating highly customizable static and interactive biological heatmaps in a web browser. shinyheatmap is a low memory footprint program, making it particularly well-suited for the interactive visualization of extremely large datasets that cannot typically be computed in-memory due to size restrictions. Conclusions: shinyheatmap is hosted online as a freely available web server with an intuitive graphical user interface: http://shinyheatmap.com. The methods are implemented in R, and are available as part of the shinyheatmap project at: https://github.com/Bohdan-Khomtchouk/shinyheatmap.</span></p>

	<title><![CDATA[HybPiper]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>HybPiper was designed for targeted sequence capture, in which DNA sequencing libraries are enriched for gene regions of interest, especially for phylogenetics. HybPiper is a suite of Python scripts that wrap and connect bioinformatics tools in order to extract target sequences from high-throughput DNA sequencing reads.</p>
<p>Targeted bait capture is a technique for sequencing many loci simultaneously based on bait sequences. HybPiper pipeline starts with high-throughput sequencing reads (for example from Illumina MiSeq), and assigns them to target genes using BLASTx or BWA. The reads are distributed to separate directories, where they are assembled separately using SPAdes. The main output is a FASTA file of the (in frame) CDS portion of the sample for each target region, and a separate file with the translated protein sequence.</p>
<p>HybPiper also includes post-processing scripts, run after the main pipeline, to also extract the intronic regions flanking each exon, investigate putative paralogs, and calculate sequencing depth. For more information,&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/mossmatters/HybPiper/wiki/">please see our wiki</a>.</p>
<p>HybPiper is run separately for each sample (single or paired-end sequence reads). When HybPiper generates sequence files from the reads, it does so in a standardized directory hierarchy. Many of the post-processing scripts rely on this directory hierarchy, so do not modify it after running the initial pipeline. It is a good idea to run the pipeline for each sample from the same directory. You will end up with one directory per run of HybPiper, and some of the later scripts take advantage of this predictable directory structure.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/mossmatters/HybPiper" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/mossmatters/HybPiper</a></p>]]></description>

<h2>Run Maq Now</h2>
<p>Follow these steps to try Maq. All you need is a reference sequence file in the FASTA format.</p>
<ol>
<li>Prepare a reference sequence (ref.fasta). Better a bacterial genome.</li>
<li>Download maq, maq-data and maqview at the&nbsp;<a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=191815">download page</a>.</li>
<li>Copy maq, maq.pl and maq_eval.pl to the $PATH or to the same directory.</li>
<li>Simulate diploid reference and read sequences, map reads, call variants and evaluate the results in one go:
<pre>maq.pl demo ref.fasta calib-30.dat
</pre>
where&nbsp;<em>calib-30.dat</em>&nbsp;is contained in maq-data.</li>
<li>View the alignment:
<pre>cd maqdemo/easyrun;
maqindex -i -c consensus.cns all.map;
maqview -c consensus.cns all.map</pre>
</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>Even for advanced maq users, running `maq.pl demo' is recommended. You may find something helpful.</strong></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://maq.sourceforge.net" rel="nofollow">http://maq.sourceforge.net</a></p>]]></description>
