Ortholuge 0.8

:: DESCRIPTION

Ortholuge is a computational method that can generate precise ortholog predictions between two species on a genome-wide scale (using additional outgroup data for reference). It can either evaluate a previously constructed set of orthologs or it can generate an initial tentative set of orthologs that are subsequently evaluated. Precise ortholog prediction is important for a variety of analyses that utilize comparative genomics, including regulatory element identification.
