iTOL: Interactive Tree Of Life

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 18 Jul 2017 05:36:51 -0500

Interactive Tree Of Life is an online tool for the display, annotation and management of phylogenetic trees.

Explore your trees directly in the browser, and annotate them with various types of data.

iTOL can easily visualize trees with 50'000 or more leaves. With advanced search capabilities and display of unrooted, circular and regular cladograms or phylograms, exploring and navigating trees of any size is simple.

Stay-at-Home RevBayes Workshop

Sat, 20 Jun 2020 11:53:24 -0500

Stay-at-Home RevBayes Workshop
Location: Anywhere (online-only event)
Dates: 7/13, 2020 to 8/12, 2020
Instructors: Joëlle Barido-Sottani, Walker Pett, Josh Justison, Wade Dismukes, Luiza Fabreti, Tracy Heath, Jeremy M. Brown, Rosana Zenil-Ferguson
Register: https://iastate.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_02sCYRWbxYK9I5D

Description
This free online-only RevBayes workshop will provide an introduction to the theory and use of RevBayes, with a focus on (1) tree inference from molecular data, (2) analyses combining fossil and extant taxa, and (3) evaluating MCMC performance, with advanced topics including assessing model adequacy and macroevolutionary analyses. Additional topics may be added depending on the interests of selected participants. The format will be a combination of interactive video sessions (via Zoom or similar tools), real-time discussions over Slack, self-guided tutorials, and pre-recorded videos.

The initial session will resolve technical issues and present the basics of using RevBayes. Participants will then be expected to work through several tutorials on their own schedule, with the help of pre-recorded materials. A Slack forum will be open for questions and issues. The workshop will conclude with several online Q&A sessions with the instructors. The dates for the interactive sessions are currently tentative and may be adjusted depending on the schedules of the participants and instructors.

We are hoping to identify up to 15 participants for this online course. While we hope we are able to accommodate everyone who applies, we realize that this may not be possible because of time-zones and availability. If the number of applicants exceeds our capacity, we hope to organize a second round of sessions later in the year. Participants will not be charged for the course, but we will request that they commit to completing the tutorials and attending a majority of interactive sessions.

To apply to this course, please go to the registration form and submit your application by July 6, 2020.

FigTree

Rahul Nayak — Wed, 19 Jul 2017 08:06:45 -0500

FigTree is designed as a graphical viewer of phylogenetic trees and as a program for producing publication-ready figures. As with most of my programs, it was written for my own needs so may not be as polished and feature-complete as a commercial program. In particular it is designed to display summarized and annotated trees produced by BEAST.

TMRCA Calculator

BioStar — Wed, 03 Feb 2021 05:07:30 -0600

This program calculates the probability that two people have a certain number of generations between them, based on the standard infinite alleles formula of Walsh. It calculates both the probability of being at an exact number of generations back to the Most Recent Common Ancestor (MRCA) of a certain pair of people and the cumulative probability that the actual number of generations is less than a certain value. Note that the convention using generations is changed from an earlier version of this calculator which used "transmission events". It can list both result types in a table or graph. In either case the horizontal axis stops at the point where the cumulative probability reaches 95% or 10 generations, whichever is longer, or an absolute max of 50,000. Beyond 90% the calculation becomes inaccurate.

Pango Lineage Analysis !

Abhi — Mon, 15 Nov 2021 03:38:29 -0600

The Pango nomenclature is being used by researchers and public health agencies worldwide to track the transmission and spread of SARS-CoV-2, including variants of concern. This website documents all current Pango lineages and their spread, as well as various software tools which can be used by researchers to perform analyses on SARS-COV-2 sequence data.

RNAcon: web-server for the prediction and classification of non-coding RNAs

Shruti Paniwala — Mon, 17 Jul 2017 04:55:11 -0500

RNAcon is a web-server for the prediction and classification of non-coding RNAs. It uses SVM-based model for the discrimination between coding and ncRNAs and RandomForest-based prediction model for the classification of ncRNAs into different classes. The structural information based graph properties were used for the development of prediction model.

The standalone version (Linux-based command-line) of RNAcon is freely available for the global scientific community.

CAT/BAT: tool for taxonomic classification of contigs and metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs)

Jit — Mon, 18 May 2020 10:53:32 -0500

Contig Annotation Tool (CAT) and Bin Annotation Tool (BAT) are pipelines for the taxonomic classification of long DNA sequences and metagenome assembled genomes (MAGs/bins) of both known and (highly) unknown microorganisms, as generated by contemporary metagenomics studies. The core algorithm of both programs involves gene calling, mapping of predicted ORFs against the nr protein database, and voting-based classification of the entire contig / MAG based on classification of the individual ORFs. CAT and BAT can be run from intermediate steps if files are formated appropriately (see Usage).

PhylomeDB

Poonam Mahapatra — Mon, 12 Aug 2013 11:55:39 -0500

PhylomeDB is a public database for complete collections of gene phylogenies (phylomes). It allows users to interactively explore the evolutionary history of genes through the visualization of phylogenetic trees and multiple sequence alignments.

Moreover, phylomeDB provides genome-wide orthology and paralogy predictions which are based on the analysis of the phylogenetic trees. The automated pipeline used to reconstruct trees aims at providing a high-quality phylogenetic analysis of different genomes , including Maximum Likelihood or Bayesian tree inference, alignment trimming and evolutionary model testing. PhylomeDB includes also a public download section with the complete set of trees, alignments and orthology predictions.
