Tools

As part of our NSF- and NIH-funded research we develop tools for identifying evidence of lateral gene transfer (LGT) in genome sequencing data.  More information can be found on our HGT/LGT website.

TwinBLAST

TwinBLAST was developed to allow for easy visual inspection of two BLAST reports simultaneously.

LGTSeek

LGTSeek can be used to detect the recent integration of DNA from paired end Illumina data with some knowledge about the donor and/or recipient genome.

LGTView

LGTView is an interactive visualization tool.
