High-quality draft genomes are now easy to generate, as sequencing and assembly costs have dropped dramatically. However, building a user-friendly searchable Web site and database for a newly annotated genome is not straightforward. Here we present Badger, a lightweight and easy-to-install genome exploration environment designed for next generation non-model organism genomes.
Badger is released under the GPL and is available at http://badger.bio.ed.ac.uk/. We show two working examples: (i) a test dataset included with the source code, and (ii) a collection of four filarial nematode genomes.
随着测序和组装成本的大幅降低,现在很容易生成高质量的草图基因组。然而,为新注释的基因组构建一个用户友好的可搜索网站和数据库并不简单。在这里,我们介绍了 Badger,这是一个专为下一代非模式生物基因组设计的轻量级且易于安装的基因组探索环境。
Badger 根据 GPL 发布,可在 http://badger.bio.ed.ac.uk/ 获得。我们展示了两个工作示例:(i)随源代码提供的测试数据集,以及(ii)四个丝虫线虫基因组的集合。
