discoSnp++

[page edited on June, 18, 2020] – github webpage Tutorial A toturial can be followed from those slides demo_discosnp Description Software discoSnp++ is designed for discovering Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) and insertions/deletions (indels) from raw set(s) of reads obtained with Next Generation Sequencers (NGS). Note that number of input read sets is not constrained, it can …

TakeABreak

[last edited on July, 7, 2015] Description TakeABreak is a tool that can detect inversion breakpoints directly from raw NGS reads, without the need of any reference genome and without de novo assembling the genomes. Its implementation has a very limited memory impact allowing its usage on common desktop computers and acceptable runtime (Illumina reads …

Commet

Comparing and combining multiple metagenomic datasets [PAGE Created on July, 29 2014] Description: COMMET (“COmpare Multiple METagenomes”) provides a global similarity overview between all datasets of a large metagenomic project. Directly from non-assembled reads, all against all comparisons are performed through an efficient indexing strategy. Then, results are stored as bit vectors, a compressed representation …

Compareads

Compareads is no more maintained. You can now use the new Commet software which does more and better than compareads. [PAGE UPDATED on July, 29 2014] Description: Compareads is a tool designed to extract similar reads between potentially huge metagenomic datasets (i.e., hundreds of millions reads per dataset) Download: The last Compareads release may be …

Mapsembler2

[page edited on August, 24th, 2020] Mapsembler2 is not maintained anymore Sadly, we have no more man power to maintain and to update Mapsembler2.  The last (2014) version is this one:  mapsembler2_2.2.4. Many bug fixes, new features, and optimizations are expected. Any help would be warmly welcome! Mapsembler2 description and possible usages: Mapsembler2 is a …
