ESGA - Genome Annotation

Nextflow install with bioconda Singularity Container available

This pipeline can be used to generate "hints" from aligned sequence evidence to annotate a genome de novo.

Pipeline main steps

  1. Hints file is generated from all available evidences (proteins, EST and/or RNA-seq reads).

  2. Gene models are predicted using Augustus with the hints file as extrinsic evidence (optional).

The minimum requirements are a genome file and at least one type of evidence.

Test data
