Phytozome v12.1: plant science community hub for accessing palnts genomic data

Surabhi Chaudhary — Tue, 17 Mar 2020 07:30:17 -0500

Phytozome, the Plant Comparative Genomics portal of the Department of Energy's Joint Genome Institute, provides JGI users and the broader plant science community a hub for accessing, visualizing and analyzing JGI-sequenced plant genomes, as well as selected genomes and datasets that have been sequenced elsewhere. As of release v12.1.6, Phytozome hosts 93 assembled and annotated genomes, from 82 Viridiplantae species. More than half of these genomes have been sequenced, assembled and/or annotated with JGI Plant Science program resources. By integrating this large collection of plant genomes into a single resource and performing comprehensive and uniform annotation and analyses, Phytozome facilitates accurate and insightful comparative genomics studies.

RITA: Rapid identification of high-confidence taxonomic assignments for metagenomic data

Jit — Mon, 27 Nov 2017 08:25:33 -0600

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 achieve very high accuracy on short reads. Unlike other hybrid approaches which combine these predictions for all sequences to be classified, RITA uses a pipeline to first identify cases where both types of classifier are in agreement, which constitute the highest-confidence set. Sequences not classified in this manner are subjected to a series of downstream classification steps.

Katju Lab

Fri, 26 Feb 2016 03:25:32 -0600

TheLab seek to understand the genetic factors contributing to genomic variation and phenotypic diversity. To this end, we employ molecular and bioinformatic tools to study evolutionary processes at the level of populations, both experimental and natural, and genomes. Our research interests encompass a wide range of topics, including the evolution of organellar and nuclear genomes, gene duplication and the origin of novel function, and the fitness and phenotypic consequences of mutation in evolution. For details regards ongoing projects, please see the Research page.

SISRS: Site Identification from Short Read Sequences

Abhimanyu Singh — Wed, 28 Nov 2018 08:56:03 -0600

Next-gen sequence data such as Illumina HiSeq reads. Data must be sorted into folders by taxon (e.g. species or genus). Paired reads in fastq format must be specified by _R1 and _R2 in the (otherwise identical) filenames. Paired and unpaired reads must have a fastq file extension.

SMASH: An alignment-free tool to find and visualise rearrangements between pairs of DNA sequences

Jit — Thu, 21 Dec 2017 08:26:57 -0600

SMASH is a completely alignment-free method to find and visualise rearrangements between pairs of DNA sequences. The detection is based on relative compression, namely using a FCM, also known as Markov model, of high context order (typically 20). The method has been approached with a tool (also called SMASH). For visualization, SMASH outputs a SVG image, with an ideogram output architecture, where the patterns are represented with several HSV values (only value varies). The following image, illustrating the information maps between human and chimpanzee for the several chromosomes, depicts an example:

RopeBWT2: Incremental construction of FM-index for DNA sequences

Rahul Nayak — Thu, 25 Oct 2018 04:48:54 -0500

RopeBWT2 is an tool for constructing the FM-index for a collection of DNA sequences. It works by incrementally inserting one or multiple sequences into an existing pseudo-BWT position by position, starting from the end of the sequences. This algorithm can be largely considered a mixture of BCR and dynamic FM-index. Nonetheless, ropeBWT2 is unique in that it may implicitlysort the input into reverse lexicographical order (RLO) or reverse-complement lexicographical order (RCLO) while building the index.

LTR_Finder: an efficient program for finding full-length LTR retrotranspsons in genome sequences.

Neel — Sun, 13 Jan 2019 07:05:53 -0600

LTR_Finder is an efficient program for finding full-length LTR retrotranspsons in genome sequences.

The Program first constructs all exact match pairs by a suffix-array based algorithm and extends them to long highly similar pairs. Then Smith-Waterman algorithm is used to adjust the ends of LTR pair candidates to get alignment boundaries. These boundaries are subject to re-adjustment using supporting information of TG..CA box and TSRs and reliable LTRs are selected. Next, LTR_FINDER tries to identify PBS, PPT and RT inside LTR pairs by build-in aligning and counting modules. RT identification includes a dynamic programming to process frame shift. For other protein domains, LTR_FINDER calls ps_scan (from PROSITE, http://www.expasy.org/prosite/) to locate cores of important enzymes if they occur.
