Softwares

From Wikionchus

People in the lab use many different softwares for all kinds of data analysis. This page helps people know what kind of things & expertise already exists in the lab.

Based on the the licensing, the softwares can be clasified as (in increasing order of "free"-dom ) :

1. Commercial license, bought specifically for the lab
   1. geneious Suite
2. Commercial license, supplied by Max Planck
   1.  EndNote
3. Free, Closed-Source
   1. Mendeley
4. Free, Open-Source
   1. Zotero

A more useful classification would be based on the application area of the software. This would require more organization to put up here, but still some preliminary info is available for a start.

1. Sequence Analysis : All purpose sequence readers, assemblers, alignment, phylogeny etc.
2. Reference management : Different softwares to manage bibliographies / papers / references
3. Genetic Mapping : QTL analysis, making of genetic maps
4. Statistical Analysis
   1.  R

An alphabetical list of all softwares:

1. AntMap : For making genetic linkgae maps.
2. Cite-U-Like : Reference management software, free, closed source, online only
3. DNA-STAR Suite : All purpose sequence readers, assemblers, alignments etc.
4. geneious Suite : All purpose sequence readers, assemblers, alignments etc.
5. Mendeley : Reference management software, free, closed source
6. Zotero : Reference management software, free, open source
