This project reproduces the study carried out by Hittalmani S. et al. in 2016 about the S. oryzae fungus, which causes sheath rot of rice. We used OmicsBox for all necessary steps till functional analysis in order to predict pathogenic functions. (Original research paper: https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-016-2599-0)
BioBam Scholarship Supported Project – with OmicsBox. Researchers: Mr. Arun Arumugaperumal Mr. Sayan Paul and Miss Saranya Lathakumari, PhD students Dr. Sudhakar Sivasubramaniam Abstract The earthworm Eisenia fetida has a symbiotic bacteria named Verminephrobacter eiseniae in its nephridia. A new strain of V. eiseniae msu was found out and the genome of the bacteria was found hidden in the genome
De novo transcriptome assemblies are required to analyze RNA-seq data from a species for which there is no reference genome. Once the assembly is complete, researchers need to know how good it is or compare the quality of similar assemblies generated by different parameters. There are several ways to characterize the quality of transcriptome assemblies. A good metric of assembly
DNA sequencing is the process of determining the nucleic acid sequence in DNA, and it is the technology by which the genome of a species can be characterized. Despite the advent of next-generation sequencing, current DNA sequencing technologies cannot read whole genomes at once, but rather reads small pieces of between 20 and 30.000 bases, depending on the technology used.
It is possible to run Blast only on the differential expressed genes and not on all the data with OmicsBox. One has to select only those sequences that have differential expressed genes in the OmicsBox project.First, make sure that the name of the sequences in the project match the ones from the differential expression results.

In this analysis, we will reproduce a study carried out by Michaela M. Martis et al. in 2017 with OmicsBox. (http://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0185182) Introduction Ascaridia galli is an intestinal parasite that infects a wide range of domestic birds. It is especially important in European farms, where it parasites laying hens and causes economic problems. The only available treatments are the Benzimidazole derivatives,
