Genome Analysis

• de novo assembly – Assemble NGS DNA/RNA reads into ordered or unordered contigs/scaffolds
• Gene prediction – identification of coding region in genome/transcriptome
• Gene annotation – annotation of predicted genes using homology based search using closely related genome
• Phylogenomics – prediction of evolutionary relationships based on whole genome data or conserved genes
• Comparative genomics – genomic features such as gene order, regulatory sequences are compared between different genomes
