MOTIVATION: Prediction of functional variant consequences is an important part of sequencing pipelines, allowing the categorization and prioritization of genetic variants for follow up analysis. However, current predictors...
Abstract: Background: Efficient and effective genome scaffolding tools are still in high demand for generating reference-quality assemblies. While long read data itself is unlikely to create a chromosome-scale assembly for most...

BACKGROUND: Diploid genome assembly is typically impeded by heterozygosity because it introduces errors when haplotypes are collapsed into a consensus sequence. Trio binning offers an innovative solution that exploits...

BACKGROUND: SAMtools and BCFtools are widely used programs for processing and analysing high-throughput sequencing data. They include tools for file format conversion and manipulation, sorting, querying, statistics, variant...
We present a genome assembly for Cottoperca gobio (channel bull blenny, (Günther, 1861)); Chordata; Actinopterygii (ray-finned fishes), a temperate water outgroup for Antarctic Notothenioids. The size of the genome assembly is...
CYBERSECURITY poses particular challenges to policy, policing and the public. Despite recent shifts in policing and security strategies, online victimisation is a major and growing problem for the Scottish criminal justice...
AIMS: This study aimed to determine the prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) amongst black South African women, describe GDM-associated risk factors and clinical management, and evaluate the efficacy of the fasting...
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Rattus norvegicus (the Norway rat; Chordata; Mammalia; Rodentia; Muridae). The genome sequence is 2.44 gigabases in span. The majority of the assembly is scaffolded into 20...
Janet Smalley `72 of Walhalla, South Carolina, was re-elected to the Third Congressional District seat. Shane Duncan `98 of Greenville, South Carolina, was elected to the Fourth Congressional District seat replacing Scott...
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Aquila chrysaetos chrysaetos (the European golden eagle; Chordata; Aves; Accipitridae). The genome sequence is 1.23 gigabases in span. The majority of the assembly is...
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Salmo trutta (the brown trout; Chordata; Actinopteri; Salmoniformes; Salmonidae). The genome sequence is 2.37 gigabases in span. The majority of the assembly is scaffolded...
Utilizing agriculture as a resource to mitigate the increased atmospheric CO2 fueling the climate crisis requires transformation of soils from a carbon (C) source into a C sink by investing in root-microbial communities to...
BACKGROUND: Large palindromes (inverted repeats) make up substantial proportions of mammalian sex chromosomes, often contain genes, and have high rates of structural variation arising via ectopic recombination. As a result, they...
