Recco 0.93 – Recombination Analysis Using Cost Optimization

Recco 0.93

:: DESCRIPTION

Recco (Recombination Analysis Using Cost Optimization) analyzes alignments of sequences that evolved subject to recombination and mutation. The analysis provides evidence as to whether a dataset contains recombination, which sequence is a recombinant and where the recombination breakpoints are. The analysis is based on explaining one sequence with all other sequences in the alignment using mutation and recombination. A parametric analysis of the parameter alpha, which weights recombination cost against mutation cost, yields additional information as to which sequence might be recombinant.
