ConPADE: Genome Assembly Ploidy Estimation from Next-Generation Sequencing Data

Jit — Fri, 24 Feb 2017 04:55:41 -0600

ConPADE (Contig Ploidy and Allele Dosage Estimation), a probabilistic method that estimates the ploidy of any given contig/scaffold based on its allele proportions. In the process, they report findings regarding errors in sequencing. The method can be used for whole genome shotgun (WGS) sequencing data. They also show applicability of the method for variant calling and allele dosage estimation. Results for simulated and real datasets are discussed and provide evidence that ConPADE performs well as long as enough sequencing coverage is available, or the true contig ploidy is low.

PBSuite: Software for Long-Read Sequencing Data from PacBio

Jit — Mon, 27 Feb 2017 09:54:47 -0600

PBJelly - the genome upgrading tool.
PBHoney - the structural variation discovery tool

Both are contained within the PBSuite code found in downloads.

PBJelly is a highly automated pipeline that aligns long sequencing reads (such as PacBio RS reads or long 454 reads in fasta format) to high-confidence draft assembles. PBJelly fills or reduces as many captured gaps as possible to produce upgraded draft genomes.

PBHoney is an implementation of two variant-identification approaches designed to exploit the high mappability of long reads (i.e., greater than 10,000 bp). PBHoney considers both intra-read discordance and soft-clipped tails of long reads to identify structural variants.

Prokka: tool for the rapid annotation of prokaryotic genomes

Jit — Mon, 06 Mar 2017 03:49:57 -0600

Prokka is a software tool for the rapid annotation of prokaryotic genomes. A typical 4 Mbp genome can be fully annotated in less than 10 minutes on a quad-core computer, and scales well to 32 core SMP systems. It produces GFF3, GBK and SQN files that are ready for editing in Sequin and ultimately submitted to Genbank/DDJB/ENA.

LncPipe:A Nextflow-based pipeline for comprehensive analyses of long non-coding RNAs from RNA-seq datasets

LEGE — Fri, 17 Sep 2021 01:57:02 -0500

The pipeline was developed based on a popular workflow framework Nextflow, composed of four core procedures including reads alignment, assembly, identification and quantification. It contains various unique features such as well-designed lncRNAs annotation strategy, optimized calculating efficiency, diversified classification and interactive analysis report. LncPipe allows users additional control in interuppting the pipeline, resetting parameters from command line, modifying main script directly and resume analysis from previous checkpoint.
