psRNATarget – Plant small RNA Target Analysis Server

psRNATarget

:: DESCRIPTION

psRNATarget is a plant small RNA target analysis server, which features two important analysis functions: 1) reverse complementary matching between miRNA and target transcript using a proven scoring schema, and 2) target site accessibility evaluation by calculating unpaired energy (UPE) required to “open” secondary structure around miRNA’s target site on mRNA.

AlphaPlantImpute – Phasing and Imputing Genotype data in Plant Breeding Populations

AlphaPlantImpute

:: DESCRIPTION

AlphaPlantImpute is a software package designed for phasing and imputing genotype data in plant breeding populations. AlphaPlantImpute can be implemented within and across bi-parental populations to phase and impute focal individuals genotyped at low-density to high-density. Focal individuals can be descendants of a bi-parental cross at various levels of selfing or can be parents of one or more bi-parental populations. All information on the model of analysis, input files and their layout, is specified in a single parameter file.

PSI-predictor – Plant Subcellular Localization Prediction

PSI-predictor

:: DESCRIPTION

PSI-predictor (Plant Subcellular localization Integrative predictor) is currently the most comprehensive and integrative subcellular location predictor for plants. Based on the wisdom of group-voting and artificial neural network, PSI integrated prediction results from 11 individual predictors to give accurate results on cytosol (cytos), endoplasmic reticulum (ER), extracellular (extra), golgi apparatus (golgi), membrane (membr), mitochondria (mito), nuclear (nucl), peroxisome (pero), plastid (plast) and vacuole (vacu). The community outperformed each individual predictor both on every subcellular location (≥0.8) and overall, with an AUROC~0.932.
