BBSplit is a tool that bins reads by mapping to multiple references simultaneously, using BBMap. The reads go to the bin of the reference they map to best. There are also disambiguation options, such that reads that map to multiple references can be binned with all of them, none of them, one of them, or put in a special "ambiguous" file for each of them. Paired reads will always be kept together.

For example, if you had a library of something that was contaminated with e.coli and salmonella, you could do this:

bbsplit.sh in=reads.fq ref=ecoli.fa,salmonella.fa basename=out_%.fq outu=clean.fq int=t

This will produce 3 output files:
out_ecoli.fq (ecoli reads)
out_salmonella.fq (salmonella reads)
clean.fq (unmapped reads)

In this case, "int=t" means that the input file is paired and interleaved. For single-end reads you would leave that out. For paired reads in 2 files, you would do this:
bbsplit.sh in1=reads1.fq in2=reads2.fq ref=ecoli.fa,salmonella.fa basename=out_%.fq outu1=clean1.fq outu2=clean2.fq

BBSplit is available here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/bbmap/

The sensitivity can be raised to be equivalent to BBMap with these flags: "minratio=0.56 minhits=1 maxindel=16000"

lordFAST, a novel long-read mapper that is specifically designed to align reads generated by PacBio and potentially other SMS technologies to a reference. lordFAST not only has higher sensitivity than the available alternatives, it is also among the fastest and has a very low memory footprint.

Copy & Paste this line into your terminal:

\curl -L https://install.perlbrew.pl | bash

Or, if your system does not have curl but something else:

# Linux
\wget -O - https://install.perlbrew.pl | bash

# FreeBSD
\fetch -o- https://install.perlbrew.pl | sh

If you prefer to install with cpan, there are two steps:

sudo cpan App::perlbrew
perlbrew init

If it is installed with cpan, the perlbrew executable should be installed as /usr/bin/perlbrew or /usr/local/bin/perlbrew. For all users who want to use perlbrew, a prior perlbrew init needs to be executed.

The default perlbrew root directory is ~/perl5/perlbrew, which can be changed by setting PERLBREW_ROOTenvironment variable before the installation and initialization. For more advanced installation process, please read the perlbrew document.

Main features:

1. works with any number of scaffold assemblies in de-novo non-progressive fashion
2. allows to simultaneously work with scaffold assemblies obtained from any in silico and in vitro techniques, supporting multiple existing formats via built-in converters
3. creates an extensive report with several comparative quality metrics (both on assembly level and on the level of individual assembly points)
4. constructs a merged combined scaffold assembly
5. provides an interactive framework for a visual comparative analysis of the given assemblies

How to use TAREAN:

• Install a local instance of the pipeline using its source code available from bitbucket repository.
• Use  public Galaxy-based server at https://repeatexplorer-elixir.cerit-sc.cz/. The server is provided in frame of the Elixir CZ project and is maintained by CESNET and CERIT-SC. Simple registration is required to use this service.

Development of TAREAN was supported by ELIXIR CZ research infrastructure project (MEYS Grant No: LM2015047).
