We present ksrates, a user-friendly command-line tool to position ancient whole-genome duplication events with respect to speciation events in a phylogeny by comparing paralog and ortholog KS distributions derived from genomic or transcriptomic sequences, while adjusting for substitution rate differences among the lineages involved.
ksrates is implemented in Python 3 and as a Nextflow pipeline. The source code, Singularity and Docker containers, documentation and tutorial are available via https://github.com/VIB-PSB/ksrates.
Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
我们展示了ksrates,这是一个用户友好的命令行工具,通过比较从基因组或转录组序列中得出的旁系同源基因和直系同源基因的Ks分布,同时针对所涉及谱系间的替换率差异进行调整,从而在系统发育中确定古代全基因组复制事件相对于物种形成事件的位置。
ksrates是用Python 3实现的,并作为一个Nextflow管道。源代码、Singularity和Docker容器、文档及教程可通过https://github.com/VIB-PSB/ksrates获取。
