	<title><![CDATA[ABACAS]]></title>
	<description><![CDATA[<p><span>ABACAS is intended to rapidly contiguate (align, order, orientate) , visualize and design primers to close gaps on shotgun assembled contigs based on a reference sequence. It uses MUMmer to find alignment positions and identify syntenies of assembly contigs against the reference. The output is then processed to generate a pseudomolecule taking overlaping contigs and gaps in to account. MUMmer's alignment generating programs, Nucmer and Promer are used followed by the 'delta-filter' utility function. Users could also run tblastx on contigs that are not used to generate the pseudomolecule.&nbsp;</span></p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://abacas.sourceforge.net/Manual.html#9._Colour_code" rel="nofollow">http://abacas.sourceforge.net/Manual.html#9._Colour_code</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>This sockeye&nbsp;software uses the Ensembl database project to import sequence and annotation information from several eukaryotic species. A user can additionally import their own custom sequence and annotation data. Individual annotation objects are displayed in Sockeye by using custom 3D models. Ensembl-derived and imported sequences can be analyzed by using a suite of multiple and pair-wise alignment algorithms. The results of these comparative analyses are also displayed in the 3D environment of Sockeye. By using the Java3D API to visualize genomic data in a 3D environment, we are able to compactly display cross-sequence comparisons. This provides the user with a novel platform for visualizing and comparing genomic feature organization.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="http://www.bcgsc.ca/platform/bioinfo/software/sockeye/releases/1.3" rel="nofollow">http://www.bcgsc.ca/platform/bioinfo/software/sockeye/releases/1.3</a></p>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<p>YASRA (Yet Another Short Read Assembler) performs comparative assembly of short reads using a reference genome, which can differ substantially from the genome being sequenced. Mapping reads to reference genomes makes use of LASTZ (Harris et al), a pairwise sequence aligner compatible with BLASTZ. Special scoring sets were derived to improve the performance, both in runtime and quality for 454 and Illumina sequence reads.</p>
<p>YASRA uses LASTZ (<a href="http://bx.psu.edu/miller_lab">http://bx.psu.edu/miller_lab</a> for released version and <a href="http://www.bx.psu.edu/%7Ersharris/lastz/newer">http://www.bx.psu.edu/~rsharris/lastz/newer</a> for newer version) for aligning the sequences to the reference genome. Please install LASTZ (the newest version on <a href="http://www.bx.psu.edu/%7Ersharris/lastz/newer">http://www.bx.psu.edu/~rsharris/lastz/newer</a>) and add the LASTZ binary in your executable/binary search path before installing YASRA.</p><p>Address of the bookmark: <a href="https://github.com/aakrosh/YASRA" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/aakrosh/YASRA</a></p>]]></description>

MAKER's inputs are minimal and its ouputs can be directly loaded into a Generic Model Organism Database (GMOD). They can also be viewed in the Apollo genome browser; this feature of MAKER provides an easy means to annotate, view and edit individual contigs and BACs without the overhead of a database.
