A recent study by Webster and Chapman introduces Buscogeny, an open-source bioinformatics pipeline designed to make this process easier. The tool uses BUSCO (Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs), which identifies conserved genes that are...
tree.bio.ed.ac.uk - FigTree is designed as a graphical viewer of phylogenetic trees and as a program for producing publication-ready figures. As with most of my programs, it was written for my own needs so may not be as polished and feature-complete as a commercial...
kiwi.cs.dal.ca - RITA is a standalone software package and Web server for taxonomic assignment of metagenomic sequence reads. By combining homology predictions from BLAST or UBLAST with compositional classifications from a Naive Bayes classifier, RITA is able to...
Meat products obtained from intact male pigs often produce offensive smell or odour which is recognized as a complex genetic trait called boar taint.Androstenone and Skatole in the fat primarily cause boar taint. Metabolism of androstenone and...
github.com - SNPGenie is a Perl script for estimating evolutionary parameters, mainly from pooled next-generation sequencing (NGS) single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variant data. SNP reports (acceptable in a variety of formats) much each correspond to a...
github.com - Reference free SNP search for comparative population genomics: multiple samples run simultanously. **experimental phase, compiles and runs with OpenMPI-1.8.8 with Intel Compiler only
Cycles enumeration (aka Bubbles) as part of de novo de bruijn...
Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most common type of genetic variation in humans—and many other organisms. A single base change in the DNA sequence (for example, an A instead of a G) can influence everything from our eye color to...
