DIVERGENOME

DIVERGENOME, a bioinformatics platform to assist population genetics and genetic epidemiology studies performed by small-medium scale research groups. DIVERGENOME is a accessible open-source platform (http://www.pggenetica.icb.ufmg.br/divergenome) developed to help investigators in data storage and analysis for population genetics and genetic epidemiology studies. The platform contains two components.

DIVERGENOMEdb

DIVERGENOMEdb is a relational database developed using MySQL. It allows to safely storing individual genotypes from different types of data such as contigs (resulted from re-sequencing projects), SNPs/INDELs and microsatellites. Genotype data can be linked to a description of the protocols used to generate them. Individuals can be linked to populations, as well as to individual phenotypic information that are collected in biomedical studies, allowing using different kinds of variables. The database structure permits easy integration with other data types, including public databases such as the HapMap project, opening prospects for future implementations.

DIVERGENOMEtools

DIVERGENOMEtools is a dynamic pipeline composed of a set of scripts, developed using a graph-based coordination algorithm and implemented in the programming language Perl. It enables the conversion of either queries submitted to the database as well as independent files to many popular file formats required by popular population genetics and genetic epidemiology software.
