Proper citation: GO2MSIG (RRID:SCR_018359) Copy
Curated, open-source, integrated data resource for comparative functional genomics in crops and model plant species to facilitate the study of cross-species comparisons using information generated from projects supported by public funds. It currently hosts annotated whole genomes in over two dozen plant species and partial assemblies for almost a dozen wild rice species in the Ensembl browser, genetic and physical maps with genes, ESTs and QTLs locations, genetic diversity data sets, structure-function analysis of proteins, plant pathways databases (BioCyc and Plant Reactome platforms), and descriptions of phenotypic traits and mutations. The web-based displays for phenotypes include the Genes and Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) modules. Sequence based relationships are displayed in the Genomes module using the genome browser adapted from Ensembl, in the Maps module using the comparative map viewer (CMap) from GMOD, and in the Proteins module displays. BLAST is used to search for similar sequences. Literature supporting all the above data is organized in the Literature database. In addition, Gramene now hosts a variety of web services including a Distributed Annotation Server (DAS), BLAST and a public MySQL database. Twice a year, Gramene releases a major build of the database and makes interim releases to correct errors or to make important updates to software and/or data. Additionally you can access Gramene through an FTP site.

https://github.com/timflutre/eqtlbma/wiki
Software package that implements Bayesian statistical methods to detect eQTLs jointly in multiple subgroups (e.g. tissues). Key features are to borrow information across subgroups, to explicitly model heterogeneity (qualitatively and quantitatively), and to borrow information across genes to estimate hyper-parameters from the data (empirical Bayes).

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/triplex.html
Software package that provides functions for identification and visualization of potential intramolecular triplex patterns in DNA sequence. The main functionality is to detect the positions of subsequences capable of folding into an intramolecular triplex (H-DNA) in a much larger sequence. The potential H-DNA (triplexes) should be made of as many canonical nucleotide triplets as possible. The package includes visualization showing the exact base-pairing in 1D, 2D or 3D.

https://github.com/CRG-Barcelona/bwtool/wiki
A command-line utility for bigWig files designed to read bigWig files rapidly and efficiently, providing functionality for extracting data and summarizing it in several ways, globally or at specific regions. Its functionality is subdivided into subprograms that roughly fall into three categories: data extraction, analysis, and data modification, although e.g. in the case of the matrix program or the sax program, the boundary between data extraction and analysis isn't very strong. The data modification programs all have the behavior that a bigWig is inputted and a new bigWig is outputted.

Software program for designing pairs of degenerate primers for a given set of DNA sequences. It works well for large input sets of genomic sequences (e.g., hundreds of sequences of length 1Kbp). It is a batch (i.e., command-line, as opposed to graphical interface) program, available for Windows XP (downloadable version) and Linux (upon request).

http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/QDNAseq.html
Software package for quantitative DNA sequencing for chromosomal aberrations providing a robust, cost-effective WGS method for DNA copy number analysis. The genome is divided into non-overlapping fixed-sized bins, number of sequence reads in each counted, adjusted with a simultaneous two-dimensional loess correction for sequence mappability and GC content, and filtered to remove spurious regions in the genome. Downstream steps of segmentation and calling are also implemented via packages DNAcopy and CGHcall, respectively.

http://code.google.com/p/popoolation/
A collection of tools to facilitate population genetic studies of next generation sequencing data from pooled individuals. It builds upon open source tools (bwa, samtools) and uses standard file formats (gtf, sam, pileup) to ensure a wide compatibility. PoPoolation allows to calculate Tajima's Pi, Watterson's Theta and Tajima's D for reference sequences using a sliding window approach. Alternatively these population genetic estimators may be calculated for a set of genes (provided as gtf). One of the main challenges in population genomics is to identify regions of intererest on a genome wide scale. PoPoolation will greatly aid this task by allowing a fast and user friendly analysis of NGS data from DNA pools.
