GTDB-Tk: A toolkit for assigning objective taxonomic classifications to bacterial and archaeal genomes.

Rahul Nayak — Wed, 22 Aug 2018 03:21:01 -0500

GTDB-Tk is a software toolkit for assigning objective taxonomic classifications to bacterial and archaeal genomes. It is computationally efficient and designed to work with recent advances that allow hundreds or thousands of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) to be obtained directly from environmental samples. It can also be applied to isolate and single-cell genomes. The GTDB-Tk is open source and released under the GNU General Public License (Version 3).

GTDB-Tk is under active development and validation. Please independently confirm the GTDB-Tk predictions by manually inspecting the tree and bringing any discrepencies to our attention. Notifications about GTDB-Tk releases will be available through the ACE Twitter account (https://twitter.com/ace_uq).

‘dockr’: the R container

Jit — Mon, 23 Dec 2019 09:56:49 -0600

dockr 0.8.6 is now available on CRAN. dockr is a minimal toolkit to build a lightweight Docker container image for your R package, in which the package itself is available. The Docker image seeks to mirror your R session as close as possible with respect to R specific dependencies. Both dependencies on CRAN R packages as well as local non-CRAN R packages will be included in the Docker container image.

If you want to know, how Docker works, and why you should consider using Docker, please take a look at the Docker website.

PaReBrick: PArallel REarrangements and BReaks identification toolkit

Jit — Fri, 08 Oct 2021 10:20:03 -0500

PaReBrick. The tool takes a collection of strains represented as a sequence of oriented synteny blocks and a phylogenetic tree as input data. It identifies rearrangements, tests them for consistency with a tree, and sorts the events by their parallelism score. The tool provides diagrams of the neighbors for each block of interest, allowing the detection of horizontally transferred blocks or their extra copies and the inversions in which copied blocks are involved.We demonstrated PaReBrick’s efficiency and accuracy and showed its potential to detect genome rearrangements responsible for pathogenicity and adaptation in bacterial genomes
