https://github.com/ggloor/ALDEx2

Software tool to examine compositional high-throughput sequence data with Welch's t-test. A differential relative count abundance analysis for the comparison of two conditions. For example, single-organism and meta-rna-seq high-throughput sequencing assays, or of selected and unselected values from in-vitro sequence selections. Uses a Dirichlet-multinomial model to infer abundance from counts, that has been optimized for three or more experimental replicates. Infers sampling variation and calculates the expected Benjamini-Hochberg false discovery rate given the biological and sampling variation using several parametric and non-parametric tests. Can to glm and Kruskal-Wallace tests on one-way ANOVA style designs.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/primerdesigner/

High throughput PCR primer design software. Target regions defined through a rich set of descriptors, such as Ensembl accessions and arbitrary genomic coordinates, may be specified. Primer pairs are then selected computationally to produce a minimal amplicon set capable of tiling across the specified target regions. As part of the tiling process, primer pairs are computationally screened to meet the criteria for success with one of two PCR amplification protocols.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/ddCt.html

Software package providing an approximation method to determine relative gene expression with quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) experiments. It requires no standard curve for each primer-target pair, therefore reducing the working load and yet returning accurate enough results as long as the assumptions of the amplification efficiency hold. The package implements a pipeline to collect, analyze and visualize qRT-PCR results, for example those from TaqMan SDM software, mainly using the ddCt method. The pipeline can be either invoked by a script in command-line or through the API consisting of S4-Classes, methods and functions.

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/ggbio.html

An R package for extending the grammar of graphics for genomic data. The graphics are designed to answer common scientific questions, in particular those often asked of high throughput genomics data. All core Bioconductor data structures are supported, where appropriate. The package supports detailed views of particular genomic regions, as well as genome-wide overviews. Supported overviews include ideograms and grand linear views. High-level plots include sequence fragment length, edge-linked interval to data view, mismatch pileup, and several splicing summaries.

http://moma.dk/normfinder-software

Software for identifying the optimal normalization gene among a set of candidates. It ranks the set of candidate normalization genes according to their expression stability in a given sample set and given experimental design. It can analyze expression data obtained through any quantitative method e.g. real time RT-PCR and microarray based expression analysis. NormFinder.xla adds the NormFinder functionality directly to Excel. A version for R is also available.

http://primerseq.sourceforge.net/

Software that designs RT-PCR primers that evaluate alternative splicing events by incorporating RNA-Seq data. It is particularly advantageous for designing a large number of primers for validating alternative splicing events found in RNA-Seq data. It incorporates RNA-Seq data in the design process to weight exons by their read counts. Essentially, the RNA-Seq data allows primers to be placed using actually expressed transcripts. This could be for a particular cell line or experimental condition, rather than using annotations that incorporate transcripts that are not expressed for the data. Alternatively, you can design primers that are always on constitutive exons. PrimerSeq does not limit the use of gene annotations and can be used for a wide array of species.
