Calculate how much sequencing you need to hit a target depth of coverage (or vice versa).

Instructions: set the read length/configuration and genome size, then select what you want to calculate.

Written by Stephen Turner, based on the Lander-Waterman formula, inspired by a similar calculator written by James Hadfield. Coverage is calculated as C=LN/G and reads as N=CG/L where C = Coverage (X),L = Read length (bp), G = Haploid genome size (bp), and N = Number of reads. Source code on GitHub.

The purpose of the hive plot is to establish a new baseline for visualization of large networks — a method that is both general and tunable and useful as a starting point in visually exploring network structure.

SynVisio requires two files to run:

• The simplified gff file that was used as an input for a McScanX query.
• The collinearity file generated as an output by McScanX for the same input query.
• Optional track file in bedgraph format to annotate the generated charts.

SynVisio offers different types of visualizations such as Linear Parallel plots, Hive plots, Stacked Parallel Plots and Dot plots. Users can configure the type of plots required and then choose the source and the target chromosomes that need to be mapped. Users also have option to download the generated visualizations in publication ready SVG or PNG formats.

This is where MeTAline comes in.

MeTAline is a reproducible workflow designed to simplify shotgun metagenomic analysis. It brings together important steps such as quality control, host-DNA removal, taxonomic profiling and functional analysis, using tools including Kraken2, MetaPhlAn4 and HUMAnN.

What makes it especially useful is its ability to handle large datasets while keeping analyses organized and reproducible. Built with Snakemake and supporting containerized environments, MeTAline can also be used on high-performance computing systems.

In simple terms, MeTAline helps researchers move from millions of confusing DNA fragments to a clearer picture of who is there, what they might be doing, and what the data could mean.

Sometimes, the biggest challenge in science isn't collecting more data — it's finding the story hidden inside it.
