NextGenMap: Fast and accurate read mapping in highly polymorphic genomes
TLDR
NextGenMap is reported, a fast and accurate read mapper, which aligns reads reliably to a reference genome even when the sequence difference between target and reference genome is large, i.e. highly polymorphic genome.Abstract:
Summary: When choosing a read mapper, one faces the trade off between speed and the ability to map reads in highly polymorphic regions. Here, we report NextGenMap, a fast and accurate read mapper, which reduces this dilemma. NextGenMap aligns reads reliably to a reference genome even when the sequence difference between target and reference genome is large, i.e. highly polymorphic genome. At the same time, NextGenMap outperforms current mapping methods with respect to runtime and to the number of correctly mapped reads. NextGenMap efficiently uses the available hardware by exploiting multi-core CPUs as well as graphic cards (GPUs), if available. In addition, NextGenMap handles automatically any read data independent of read length and sequencing technology.

Gene regulatory divergence between populations of Drosphila melanogaster
TL;DR: This thesis centers around the analysis of adaptive cis-regulatory changes associated with two Drosophila melanogaster genes: CG9509, a gene of unknown function, and Metallothionein A (MtnA), a gene involved in metal homeostasis and the general stress response and proposes that the organismal phenotype under selection is reduced wing loading, which likely improves flight ability at cooler temperatures.

Advancing Mitochondrial Metagenomics: A New Assembly Strategy and Validating the Power of Seed-Based Approach
TL;DR: A novel MMG pipeline was applied to different DNA extractions, one per species, and their sequence as a mixed sample for rapid mitogenome assembly, and it was observed that short barcodes used as references had almost identical detection power compared with mitogenomes but required greater sequencing depth.
