Software and databases

Software

  • FISH. Applies a fast dynamic programming algorithm to identify and statistically assess regions of weak ancestral similarity within and between complex genomes.
  • MapPop. Chooses good samples from mapping populations (such as RILs) and for locating new markers relative to an existing linkage map.

Databases

  • Dryad Digital Repository, a curated resource that makes the data underlying scientific publications discoverable, freely reusable, and citable. Dryad provides a general-purpose home for a wide diversity of datatypes.
  • Phenoscape Knowledgebase, a datastore of computable phenotypes for studies of evolution and genetics.
