Background: Current advancements in next-generation sequencing technology have made possible to sequence whole genome but assembling a large number of short sequence reads is still a big challenge. In this article, we present the comparative study of seven assemblers, namely, ABySS, Velvet, Edena, SGA, Ray, SSAKE, and Perga, using prokaryotic and eukaryotic paired-end as well as single-end data sets from Illumina platform.
Results: Results showed that in case of single-end data sets, Velvet and ABySS outperformed in all the seven assemblers with comparatively low assembling time and high genome fraction.
The main objective of this study is to find out the importance of machine vision approach for the classification of five types of land cover data such as bare land, desert rangeland, green pasture, fertile cultivated land, and Sutlej river land. A novel spectra-statistical framework is designed to classify the subjective land cover data types accurately. Multispectral data of these land covers were acquired by using a handheld device named multispectral radiometer in the form of five spectral bands (blue, green, red, near infrared, and shortwave infrared) while texture data were acquired with a digital camera by the transformation of acquired images into 229 texture features for each image.

IVisTMSA is a software package of seven graphical tools for multiple sequence alignments. MSApad is an editing and analysis tool. It can load 409% more data than Jalview, STRAP, CINEMA, and Base-by-Base.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA comparison of 10 most popular Multiple Sequence Alignment (MSA) tools, namely, MUSCLE, MAFFT(L-INS-i), MAFFT (FFT-NS-2), T-Coffee, ProbCons, SATe, Clustal Omega, Kalign, Multalin, and Dialign-TX is presented. We also focused on the significance of some implementations embedded in algorithm of each tool. Based on 10 simulated trees of different number of taxa generated by R, 400 known alignments and sequence files were constructed using indel-Seq-Gen.
