	<title><![CDATA[BUSCO: Assessing genome assembly and annotation completeness with Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<ul>
<li><span>High-throughput genomics has revolutionized biological research, however, while the number of sequenced genomes grows by the day, quality assessment of the resulting assembled sequences remains complicated and mostly limited to technical measures like N50.&nbsp;</span></li>
<li></li>
<li><span>BUSCO provides measures for quantitative assessment of genome assembly, gene set, and transcriptome completeness based on evolutionarily informed expectations of gene content from near-universal single-copy orthologs selected from&nbsp;</span><a href="http://orthodb.org/">OrthoDB</a><span>.&nbsp;</span></li>
<li></li>
<li><span>BUSCO assessments are implemented in open-source software, with comprehensive lineage-specific sets of Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs for arthropods, vertebrates, metazoans, fungi, eukaryotes, and bacteria.&nbsp;</span></li>
<li></li>
<li><span>These conserved orthologs are ideal candidates for large-scale phylogenomics studies, and the annotated BUSCO gene models built during genome assessments provide a comprehensive gene predictor training set for use as part of genome annotation pipelines.&nbsp;</span></li>
<li></li>
<li><span>BUSCO assessments offer intuitive metrics, based on evolutionarily informed expectations of gene content from hundreds of species, to gauge completeness of rapidly accumulating genomic data and satisfy an Iberian's quest for quality - "Busco calidad/qualidade".</span></li>

<p>Blaxter Lab, Institute of Evolutionary Biology, University of Edinburgh</p>
<p><span>Goal</span>: To create blobplots or Taxon-Annotated-GC-Coverage plots (TAGC plots) to visualise the contents of genome assembly data sets as a QC step.</p>
<p>This repository accompanies the paper:<br><span>Blobology: exploring raw genome data for contaminants, symbionts and parasites using taxon-annotated GC-coverage plots.</span>&nbsp;<em>Sujai Kumar, Martin Jones, Georgios Koutsovoulos, Michael Clarke, Mark Blaxter</em><br>(submitted 2013-10-01 to&nbsp;<em>Frontiers in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology special issue : Quality assessment and control of high-throughput sequencing data</em>).</p>
<p>It contains bash/perl/R scripts for running the analysis presented in the paper to create a preliminary assembly, and to create and collate GC content, read coverage and taxon annotation for the preliminary assembly, which can be visualised, such as Figure 2a from the paper showing TAGC plots/blobplots for&nbsp;<em>Caenorhabditis</em>&nbsp;sp. 5:&nbsp;</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/blaxterlab/blobology" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/blaxterlab/blobology</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>Redundans pipeline assists&nbsp;<span>an assembly of heterozygous genomes</span>.<br>Program takes as input&nbsp;<span>assembled contigs</span>,&nbsp;<span>paired-end and/or mate pairs sequencing libraries</span>&nbsp;and returns&nbsp;<span>scaffolded homozygous genome assembly</span>, that should be&nbsp;<span>less fragmented</span>&nbsp;and with total&nbsp;<span>size smaller</span>&nbsp;than the input contigs. In addition, Redundans will automatically&nbsp;<span>close the gaps</span>&nbsp;resulting from genome assembly or scaffolding&nbsp;<a href="https://github.com/Gabaldonlab/redundans/blob/master/test#redundans-pipeline">more details</a>.</p>
<p>The pipeline consists of three steps/modules:</p>
<ul>
<li><span>redundancy reduction</span>: detection and selectively removal of redundant contigs from an initial&nbsp;<em>de novo</em>&nbsp;assembly</li>
<li><span>scaffolding</span>: joining of genome fragments using paired-end and/or mate-pairs reads</li>
<li><span>gap closing</span></li>
</ul>
<p>Redundans is:</p>
<ul>
<li><span>fast</span>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;<span>lightweight</span>, multi-core support and memory-optimised, so it can be run even on the laptop for small-to-medium size genomes</li>
<li><span>flexible</span>&nbsp;toward many sequencing technologies (Illumina, 454 or Sanger) and library types (paired-end, mate pairs, fosmids)</li>
<li><span>modular</span>: every step can be ommited or replaced by another tools</li>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>HGA tool version 1.0 This tool helps to apply the Hierarchical Genome Assembly (HGA) method. The tool will apply: 1. Partitioning a given reads dataset into a given number of partitions. 2. Assembling each partitions using a pre-specified assembler (Velvet or SPAdes in this version) and using a given kmer size. 3. Merging all the assemblies of the partition. 4. Combining all the assemblies of the partition (using velvet with kmer value of 31). 5. Finaly, re-assembling the whole dataset with the merged contigs or the combined contigs, using a given kmer size.</p>

	<title><![CDATA[ScaffMatch]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>caffMatch is a novel scaffolding tool based on Maximum-Weight Matching able to produce high-quality scaffolds from NGS data (reads and contigs). The tool is written in Python 2.7. It also includes a bash script wrapper that calls aligner in case one needs to first map reads to contigs (instead of providing .sam files).</p>
<p>The arguments accepted by ScaffMatch are:</p>
<p>&nbsp; -w) Working directory -- this is the directory where ScaffMatch files are stored. These are .sam files produced after mapping reads to contigs and the resulting scaffolds file `scaffolds.fa` fasta file;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -c) Contig fasta file;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -m) Command line argument with no options. It is used when .sam files are used instead of reads .fastq files. Do not use this option if you provide reads files;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -1) (Comma separated list of) either .fastq or .sam file(s) corresponding to the first read of the read pair;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -2) (Comma separated list of) either .fastq or .sam file(s) corresponding to the second read of the read pair;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -i) (Comma separated list of) insert size(s) of the library(-ies);</p>
<p>&nbsp; -s) (Comma separated list of) library(-ies) standard deviation(s) of insert size(s);</p>
<p>&nbsp; -t) Bundle threshold. Pairs of contigs supported by number of read pairs less than the value of this argument are discarded. Optional argument, by default it is equal to 5;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -g) Matching heuristics: use `max_weight` for Maximum Weight Matching heuristics with the Insertion step, use `backbone` for Maximum Weight Matching heuristics without the Insertion step, use `greedy` for Greedy Matching heuristics;</p>
<p>&nbsp; -l) Log file - where to store the logs. Optional argument. By default, stdout is used.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://alan.cs.gsu.edu/NGS/?q=content/scaffmatch" rel="nofollow">http://alan.cs.gsu.edu/NGS/?q=content/scaffmatch</a></p>]]></description>

<p>Using the reference sequence dictionary (<code>*.dict</code>), it also creates some empty BAM files if no sam record was found for a chromosome. A pair of 'mock' SAM-Records can also be added to those empty BAMs to avoid some tools (like samtools) to crash.</p>
<h1>Usage</h1>
<p><code>java -jar splitbam.jar -p OUT/__CHROM__/__CHROM__.bam -R ref.fasta (bam|sam|stdin)</code></p>
<h1>Options</h1>
<ul>
<li>-h help; This screen.</li>
<li>-R (indexed reference file) REQUIRED.</li>
<li>-u (unmapped chromosome name): default:Unmapped</li>
<li>-e | --empty : generate EMPTY bams for chromosome having no read mapped</li>
<li>-m | --mock : if option '-e', add a mock pair of sam records to the empty bam</li>
<li>-p (output file/bam pattern) REQUIRED. MUST contain&nbsp;<strong><code>__CHROM__</code></strong>&nbsp;and end with .bam</li>
<li>-s assume input is sorted.</li>
<li>-x | --index create index.</li>
<li>-t | --tmp (dir) tmp file directory</li>

	<title><![CDATA[CNIDARIA: fast, reference-free phylogenomic clustering]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p>Motivation: Identification of biological specimens is a major requirement for a range of applications. Reference-free methods analyse unprocessed sequencing data without relying on prior knowledge, but these do not scale to arbitrarily large genomes and arbitrarily large phylogenetic distances.</p>
<p>Results: We present Cnidaria, a practical tool for clustering genomic and transcriptomic data with no limitation on ge-nome size or phylogenetic distances. We successfully simultaneously clustered 169 genomic and transcriptomic datasets from 4 kingdoms, achieving 100% accuracy at supra-species level and 78% accuracy for species level.</p>
<p>Availability and Implementation: Cnidaria is written in C++ and Python and is available at http://www.ab.wur.nl/cnidaria.</p>
