COPE: an accurate k-mer-based pair-end reads connection tool to facilitate genome assembly
An efficient tool called Connecting Overlapped Pair-End (COPE) reads, to connect overlapping pair-end reads using k-mer frequencies. We evaluated our tool on 30× simulated pair-end reads from Arabidopsis thaliana with 1% base error. COPE connected over 99% of reads with 98.8% accuracy, whic...Tags: COPE, accurate, k-mer, pair-end, reads, connection, tool, genome, assembly

ACANA: An accurate and consistent alignment tool for DNA sequences
ACANA is an accurate and consistent alignment tool for DNA sequences. ACANA is specifically designed for aligning sequences that share only some moderately conserved regions and/or have a high frequency of long insertions or deletions. It attempts to combine the best of local and global alignment...Tags: ACANA, accurate, alignment, tool, DNA, sequences

jobTree based python wrapper to run the genome simulation tool suite Evolver
evolverSimControl (eSC) can be used to simulate multi-chromosome genome evolution on an arbitrary phylogeny (Newick format). In addition to simply running evolver, eSC also automatically creates statistical summaries of the simulation as it runs including text and image files. Also...Tags: jobTree, python, wrapper, genome, simulation, tool, suite, Evolver

Mugsy: multiple whole genome alignment tool
Mugsy is a multiple whole genome aligner. Mugsy uses Nucmer for pairwise alignment, a custom graph based segmentation procedure for identifying collinear regions, and the segment-based progressive multiple alignment strategy from Seqan::TCoffee. Mugsy accepts draft genomes in the form of multi-FA...Tags: Mugsy, multiple, whole, genome, alignment, tool

SMASH: An alignment-free tool to find and visualise rearrangements between pairs of DNA sequences
SMASH is a completely alignment-free method to find and visualise rearrangements between pairs of DNA sequences. The detection is based on relative compression, namely using a FCM, also known as Markov model, of high context order (typically 20). The method has been approached with a tool (a...Tags: SMASH, alignment-free, tool, find, visualise, rearrangements, pairs, DNA, sequences

Multi-CAR: a tool of contig scaffolding using multiple references
we design a simple heuristic method to further revise our single reference-based scaffolding tool CAR into a new one called Multi-CAR such that it can utilize multiple complete genomes of related organisms as references to more accurately order and orient the contigs of a draft genome. In practic...Tags: Multi-CAR, tool, contig, scaffolding, multiple, references
