RDP4: Detection and analysis of recombination patterns in virus genomes.
TL;DR: The key feature of RDP4 that differentiates it from other recombination detection tools is its flexibility, which can be run either in fully automated mode from the command line interface or with a graphically rich user interface that enables detailed exploration of both individual recombination events and overall recombination patterns.
Journal ArticleDOI
RDP3: a flexible and fast computer program for analyzing recombination
TL;DR: RDP3 is a new version of the RDP program for characterizing recombination events in DNA-sequence alignments that includes four new recombination analysis methods, new tests for recombination hot-spots, and a range of matrix methods for visualizing over-all patterns of recombination within datasets and recombination-aware ancestral sequence reconstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI
RDP: detection of recombination amongst aligned sequences
TL;DR: Recombination Detection Program is a program that applies a pairwise scanning approach to the detection of recombination amongst a group of aligned DNA sequences.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A newly arisen lineage of SARS-CoV-2 (designated 501Y.V2) was identified in South Africa after the first wave of the epidemic in a severely affected metropolitan area (Nelson Mandela Bay) that is located on the coast of the Eastern Cape province.
Journal ArticleDOI
SDT: A Virus Classification Tool Based on Pairwise Sequence Alignment and Identity Calculation
TL;DR: Sequence Demarcation Tool (SDT) as discussed by the authors is a free user-friendly computer program that aims to provide a robust and highly reproducible means of objectively using pairwise genetic identity calculations to classify any set of nucleotide or amino acid sequences.
