Trinity assembles transcript sequences from Illumina RNA-Seq data. Trinity represents a novel method for the efficient and robust de novo reconstruction of transcriptomes from RNA-seq data. Trinity combines three independent software modules: Inchworm, Chrysalis, and Butterfly, applied sequentially to process large volumes of RNA-seq reads. Trinity partitions the sequence data into many individual de Bruijn graphs, each representing the transcriptional complexity at a given gene or locus, and then processes each graph independently to extract full-length splicing isoforms and to tease apart transcripts derived from paralogous genes.

ScVelo is a scalable toolkit for RNA velocity analysis in single cells. RNA velocity enables the recovery of directed dynamic information by leveraging splicing kinetics. scVelo generalizes the concept of RNA velocity by relaxing previously made assumptions with a stochastic and a dynamical model that solves the full transcriptional dynamics. It thereby adapts RNA velocity to widely varying specifications such as non-stationary populations.

Ngesh is a Python library and CLI tool for simulating phylogenetic trees and data. It is intended for benchmarking phylogenetic methods, especially in historical linguistics andstemmatology. The generation of stochastic phylogenetic trees also goes by the name simulationmethods for phylogenetic trees, synthetic data generation, or just phylogenetic tree simulation.

This package provides a GFF/GTF file parsing utility providing format conversions, region filtering, FASTA sequence extraction and more.

NGS is a domain-specific API for accessing reads, alignments and pileups produced from Next Generation Sequencing. The API itself is independent from any particular back-end implementation, and supports use of multiple back-ends simultaneously.

The Spliced Transcripts Alignment to a Reference (STAR) software is based on a previously undescribed RNA-seq alignment algorithm that uses sequential maximum mappable seed search in uncompressed suffix arrays followed by seed clustering and stitching procedure. In addition to unbiased de novo detection of canonical junctions, STAR can discover non-canonical splices and chimeric (fusion) transcripts, and is also capable of mapping full-length RNA sequences.

CD-HIT is a program for clustering and comparing protein or nucleotide sequences. CD-HIT is designed to be fast and handle extremely large databases.

This package adds 3D perspective plotting of points, paths, and line, 3D perspective axes, 3D perspective annotations, and wireframe plots.

An interval map structure that is optimized for low memory (each interval is represented by about 3 words + whatever the cargo is) and has semantics that are appropriate for genomic intervals (namely, intervals can overlap and queries will return all matches together). It also designed to be used in two phases: a construction phase + query phase).

Samtools implements various utilities for post-processing nucleotide sequence alignments in the SAM, BAM, and CRAM formats, including indexing, variant calling (in conjunction with bcftools), and a simple alignment viewer.

This package offers Cython bindings and a Python interface for Prodigal. Prodigal is an ORF finder designed for both genomes and metagenomes.

BamTools provides both a C++ API and a command-line toolkit for handling BAM files.

Trim Galore! is a wrapper script to automate quality and adapter trimming as well as quality control, with some added functionality to remove biased methylation positions for RRBS sequence files.

Segemehl is software to map short sequencer reads to reference genomes. Segemehl implements a matching strategy based on enhanced suffix arrays (ESA). It accepts fasta and fastq queries (gzip'ed and bgzip'ed). In addition to the alignment of reads from standard DNA- and RNA-seq protocols, it also allows the mapping of bisulfite converted reads (Lister and Cokus) and implements a split read mapping strategy. The output of segemehl is a SAM or BAM formatted alignment file.

This package provides a VCF parser for Python.

This package provides Python bindings to the libBigWig library for accessing bigWig files.

Megahit is a fast and memory-efficient NGS assembler. It is optimized for metagenomes, but also works well on generic single genome assembly (small or mammalian size) and single-cell assembly.

This package is a client implementation of the GA4GH htsget protocol. It provides a simple and reliable way to retrieve genomic data from servers supporting the protocol.

Newick-utils is a suite of utilities for processing phylogenetic trees in Newick format. Functions include re-rooting, extracting subtrees, trimming, pruning, condensing, drawing (ASCII graphics or SVG).

NanoSV is a software package that can be used to identify structural genomic variations in long-read sequencing data, such as data produced by Oxford Nanopore Technologies’ MinION, GridION or PromethION instruments, or Pacific Biosciences RSII or Sequel sequencers.

The phylo module provides a biojava interface layer to the forester phylogenomics library for constructing phylogenetic trees.

This package provides a Python client for BioThings API services.

SeqAn is a C++ library of efficient algorithms and data structures for the analysis of sequences with the focus on biological data. It contains algorithms and data structures for string representation and their manipulation, online and indexed string search, efficient I/O of bioinformatics file formats, sequence alignment, and more.

This package provides a converter between .hic files (from juicer) and single-resolution or multi-resolution .cool files (for cooler). Both hic and cool files describe Hi-C contact matrices.
