github.com - R Package to visualize alignments between two or multiple DNA sequences includinga number of functionalities to facilitate processing of alignments in PAF format. SVbyEye, an open-source R package to visualize and annotate sequence-to-sequence...

Lawley Lab are covered with a complex microbial community, known as our microbiota, which plays important roles in our physiology, immunity, metabolism and sustenance. Within the human gastrointestinal tract alone there are over 1,000 bacterial...

Using these high quality genomes we explore the evolutionary history of genes and species, building phylogenetic trees of life the contrasting roles of horizontal gene transfer and introgression in shaping evolution the biology of symbioses,...

We are generally interested in the mechanisms of species origin from a molecular and ecological perspective. Particularly, we are interested in the role of sex chromosomes in speciation. Most of our research is done on birds and mammals. Currently,...

zuguang.de - This is the documentation of the circlize package. Examples in the book are generated under version 0.4.1. If you use circlize in your publications, I would be appreciated if you can cite: Gu, Z. (2014) circlize implements and...

Only 4.4 percent DNA difference between Tiger and house cats

When you have both Illumina and Nanopore data, then SPAdes remains a good option for hybrid assembly - SPAdes was used to produce the B fragilis assembly by Mick Watson’s group. Again, running spades.py will show you the...

RAST – Web tool (upload contigs), uses the subsystems in the SEED database and provides detailed annotation and pathway analysis. Takes several hours per genome but I think this is the best way to get a high quality annotation...

ncbi.github.io - Magic-BLAST is a tool for mapping large next-generation RNA or DNA sequencing runs against a whole genome or transcriptome. Each alignment optimizes a composite score, taking into account simultaneously the two reads of a pair, and in case of...

Genome browsers are useful not only for showing final results but also for improving analysis protocols, testing data quality, and generating result drafts. Its integration in analysis pipelines allows the optimization of parameters, which...
