• velvet (velveth velvetg should be in your PATH)
• R (with Sweave)
• pdflatex (usually part of TeTeX)
• ggplot2 (from R prompt type install.packages("ggplot2","proto","xtable"))
• Perl

Optional:

• BLAT or BLAST (to generate alignments against a reference genome). If using BLAT, add faToTwoBit,gfClient,gfServer to your PATH. If using BLAST, add blastall and formatdb.

Edit permute.sh to your liking, paying particular attention to the kmer, cvCut, expCov, and other flags

To Run:

1. perl fastaAllSize mysequences.fa > mysequences.stat or gunzip -c mysequences.fa.gz | fastaAllSize > mysequences.stat Substitute fastqAllSize for fastq files.
2. ./permute.sh mysequences (leave out the .fa)

This project is part of a larger Genome Canada project on genetics and physiology of adaptation to climate change in rainbow trout, and the population genomics component is in the labs of Eric Taylor and Michael Whitlock. The landscape genomics component primarily involves whole genome sequencing approaches to understanding the genomic basis of adaptation to features of habitat, but also to provide insights into phylogeography and the influence of watershed structure on population subdivision in rainbow trout. A PhD in a related field with expertise in basic theory and bioinformatic analysis of population genomics data is required.

The position is available for one year with renewal for up to three additional years. Salary is $55,000 per year plus benefits. To apply, please send a brief cover letter summarizing your qualifications for the position, a CV, and the names, addresses, phone numbers and emails of three references.

Review of applications will begin January 16, 2017. Address application materials to etaylor@zoology.ubc.ca to whom any questions can also be addressed. etaylor@zoology.ubc.ca

Mauve has been developed with the idea that a multiple genome aligner should require only modest computational resources. It employs algorithmic techniques that scale well in the lengths of sequences being aligned. For example, a pair of Y. pestis genomes can be aligned in under a minute, while a group of 9 divergent Enterobacterial genomes can be aligned in a few hours. However, the current algorithm’s compute time (progressiveMauve) scales cubically in the number of genomes to align, making it unsuitable for datasets containing more than 50-100 bacterial genomes.

Progressive Cactus is a whole-genome alignment package.

Requirements

• git
• gcc 4.2 or newer
• python 2.7
• wget
• 64bit processor and build environment
• 150GB+ of memory on at least one machine when aligning mammal-sized genomes; less memory is needed for smaller genomes.
• Parasol or SGE for cluster support.
• 750M disk space

Instructions

IMPORTANT NOTE: Progressive Cactus does not presently support installation into paths that contain spaces. Until this is resolved, you can use a softlink as a workaround: ln -s "path with spaces" "installation path without spaces"

In the parent directory of where you want Progressive Cactus installed:

git clone git://github.com/glennhickey/progressiveCactus.git
cd progressiveCactus
git pull
git submodule update --init
make

It is also convenient to add the location of progressiveCactus/bin to your PATH environment variable. In order to run the included tools (ex hal2maf) in the submodules/ directory structure, first source progressiveCactus/environment to load the installed environment.

If any errors occur during the build process, you are unlikely to be able to use the tool. Please submit a GitHub issue so we can help out: not only will you help yourself, but others who wish to use the tool as well.

Note that all dependencies are also built and included in the submodules/ directory. This increases the size and build time but greatly simplifies installation and version management. The installation does not create or modify any files outside the progressiveCactus/ directory.
