medaka: Sequence correction provided by ONT Research

BioStar — Mon, 18 May 2020 16:28:00 -0500

medaka is a tool to create a consensus sequence from nanopore sequencing data. This task is performed using neural networks applied from a pileup of individual sequencing reads against a draft assembly. It outperforms graph-based methods operating on basecalled data, and can be competitive with state-of-the-art signal-based methods, whilst being much faster.

Tbl2asn: a command-line program that automates the creation of sequence records for submission to GenBank

Poonam Mahapatra — Mon, 29 May 2017 07:37:08 -0500

Tbl2asn is a command-line program that automates the creation of sequence records for submission to GenBank. It uses many of the same functions as Sequin but is driven generally by data files. Tbl2asn generates .sqn files for submission to GenBank. Additional manual editing is not required before submission.

Tbl2asn is available by anonymous FTP. Copy the right version for your platform, then uncompress the file, rename it to "tbl2asn", and set the permissions, as necessary for the platform.

SeqMonk:A tool to visualise and analyse high throughput mapped sequence data

Jit — Tue, 11 Sep 2018 04:39:38 -0500

SeqMonk is a program to enable the visualisation and analysis of mapped sequence data. It was written for use with mapped next generation sequence data but can in theory be used for any dataset which can be expressed as a series of genomic positions. It's main features are:

Import of mapped data from mapped data (BAM/SAM/bowtie etc)
Creation of data groups for visualisation and analysis
Visualisation of mapped regions against an annotated genome.
Flexible quantitation of the mapped data to allow comparisons between data sets
Statistical analysis of data to find regions of interest
Creation of reports containing data and genome annotation

TRITEX sequence assembly pipeline for Triticeae genomes

Jit — Tue, 20 Aug 2019 09:47:14 -0500

The pipeline is open-source and hosted in a public Bitbucket repository.

TRITEX has been run on highly inbred genotypes of barley (Hordeum vulgare), tetraploid wheat (Triticum turgidum) and hexaploid wheat (T. aestivum) with reasonable results: super-scaffold N50 values in the range of dozens of Mb and pseudomolecules with better gene space representation than a BAC-by-BAC assembly. It has never been tested and is not expected to work on heterozygous or autopolyploid genomes.

A protocol for generating chromosome-conformation capture sequencing (Hi-C) data suitable for use with the pipeline is described in Himmelbach et al. 2018. Refer to the technical notes of 10X Genomics on how to generate Chromium data.
