Software
Our software packages are divided into the following categories:
Sequencing/Assembly
Manipulation of input and output files related to whole-genome shotgun assembly. Currently maintained at CBCB at the University of Maryland.
CABOG assembles long sequences of genomic DNA given the fragmentary data produced by whole-genome shotgun sequencing.
This is a software library to run the JCVI barcode deconvolution pipeline using Sun Grid Engine, or optionally without the use of a grid.
High throughput assembly of amplicon reads for virus-sized genomes.
High throughput PCR primer design software.
A tool for cleaning data produced by automated Sanger DNA sequencers prior to sequence assembly and other downstream uses.
Enabled the first published whole-genome assembly of a free-living organism in 1995. Last revised in 2003.
