GenoViz: Visualization software for genomics

Rahul Nayak — Wed, 02 Jan 2019 04:07:57 -0600

GenoViz provides software applications and re-usable components for data visualization and data sharing in genomics. Our flagship product is Integrated Genome Browser (IGB).

For more information about IGB, visit http://bioviz.org.

Source code for the project was hosted here for many years. In 2014, we moved to a new git repository at http://www.bitbucket.org/lorainelab/integrated-genome-browser. We are still using SourceForge to distribute new releases of IGB as compiled code (igb.zip) you can use to run IGB on your computer.

If you have questions, feel free to get in touch. Contact project head Ann Loraine (aloraine@uncc.edu) or lead developer David Norris (dcnorris@uncc.edu>).

PPanGGOLiN: Depicting microbial species diversity via a Partitioned PanGenome Graph Of Linked Neighbors

LEGE — Thu, 01 Feb 2024 00:24:32 -0600

PPanGGOLiN (Gautreau et al. 2020) is a software suite used to create and manipulate prokaryotic pangenomes from a set of either genomic DNA sequences or provided genome annotations. It is designed to scale up to tens of thousands of genomes. It has the specificity to partition the pangenome using a statistical approach rather than using fixed thresholds which gives it the ability to work with low-quality data such as Metagenomic Assembled Genomes (MAGs) or Single-cell Amplified Genomes (SAGs) thus taking advantage of large scale environmental studies and letting users study the pangenome of uncultivable species.

A complete documentation is available here.

geck: trio-based comparative benchmarking of variant calls

Jit — Sun, 19 May 2019 20:54:12 -0500

Determine the accuracy of our model by comparing the precision and recall of GATK Unified Genotyper and Haplotype Caller on the high-confidence SNPs of the NIST Ashkenazim trio and the two independent Platinum Genome trios. We show that our method is able to estimate differential precision and recall between the two pipelines with 10−3uncertainty.

Linux operating system aimed at scientists

Pranjali Yadav — Mon, 19 Jan 2015 08:30:49 -0600

The Bio-Linux operating system is based on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr), and the previous version was using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. The developers only use LTS releases and that means that upgrades for this distro don't come along all that often.

This Linux distribution is aimed at scientists and it comes with more than 250 bioinformatics packages, 50 graphical applications and several hundred command line tools. And this is just skimming the surface of what the OS can do. Users have access to even more apps from the official repositories.

Bio-Linux is using an Ubuntu LTS version as its base

The fact that it uses Ubuntu LTS versions for the base is a good thing because it means its users won't have to worry about the support. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is supported until 2019, so people who are using Bio-Linux shouldn't have a problem.

"An updated Bio-Linux 8 version is now on the website in ISO and OVA versions. As usual, there is no need to download this version if you are an existing user. All updates to existing packages will be applied to your system through the update manager and new packages are all available via apt-get or Synaptic," reads the announcement.

The changelog also states that a problem that was preventing the desktop to not start on VirtualBox has been fixed, the QIIME and Bowtie-Bio tools have been upgraded, the pandaseq paired end assembler has been added, and the beginners tutorial specific to Bio-Linux 8 has been improved.

Check out the official announcement for a complete list of changes and updates. You can download Bio-Linux 8.0.5 right now from Softpedia and give it a spin. It has the Unity desktop and now it runs very well in virtual environments.
