Genomer 0.1.0 – Genome Scaffolding

Genomer 0.1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

Genomer is command line glue for genome projects. It simplifies the small but tedious tasks required when finishing a genome. Genomer makes it easy to reorganise contigs in a genome, map annotations on to the genome and generate the files required to submit a genome.

SLiQ – Simple linear Inequalities based Mate-Pair reads Filtering and Scaffolding

SLiQ

:: DESCRIPTION

SLIQ , a set of simple linear inequalities derived from the geometry of contigs on the line, can be used to predict the relative positions and orientations of contigs from individual mate pair reads and thus produce a contig digraph.

Rascaf v1.0.2 – Scaffolding with RNA-seq Read Alignment

Rascaf v1.0.2

:: DESCRIPTION

Rascaf (RnA-seq SCAFfolder) uses continuity and order information from paired-end RNA-seq reads to improve a draft assembly, particularly in the gene regions. It takes as input an assembly and one or several RNA-seq data sets aligned to the genome, and recruits additional contigs into the assembly, potentially adjusting some scaffolds to better fit the data and to create longer gene models.
