Quake: quality-aware detection and correction of sequencing errors
(2010-11-29)
We introduce Quake, a program to detect and correct errors in DNA sequencing reads. Using a maximum likelihood approach incorporating quality values and nucleotide specific miscall rates, Quake achieves the highest accuracy ...
A whole-genome assembly of the domestic cow, Bos taurus
(2009-04-29)
Background: The genome of the domestic cow, Bos taurus, was sequenced using a mixture of
hierarchical and whole-genome shotgun sequencing methods.
Results: We have assembled the 35 million sequence reads and applied a ...
Searching for SNPs with cloud computing
(Springer Nature, 2009-11-20)
As DNA sequencing outpaces improvements in computer speed, there is a critical need to accelerate tasks like alignment and SNP calling. Crossbow is a cloud-computing software tool that combines the aligner Bowtie and the ...
Genome sequence and rapid evolution of the rice pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae PXO99A
(Springer Nature, 2008-05-01)
Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae causes bacterial blight of rice (Oryza sativa L.), a major disease that constrains production of this staple crop in many parts of the world. We report here on the complete genome sequence of ...
