Release clovr-1.0-RC9 (2017-03-03-23-18-44)

  • CloVR Comparative Pipeline
    • “mugsy_callsnps” component will now output VCF files, one per genome. These will be available as tagged output
    • The Circleator output figure has been updated. It now has changed colors and added track labels.

Release clovr-1.0-RC8 (2016-06-07-02-13-51)

  • CloVR 16S pipeline
    • Added ability to use 250-PE MiSeq FASTQ reads in pipeline
      • NOTE:  The pipeline will do the demultiplexing, so if your MiSeq reads are already demultiplexed, you can still run the pipeline by converting from FASTQ to FASTA
      • In the future, the ability to pass in demultiplexed FASTQ reads will be a feature.
    • Updated QIIME to v1.8 in the pipeline
    • Changed from de-novo OTU clustering to open-reference OTU clustering
  • CloVR Microbe pipeline
    • Added SPAdes assembly as an option for Illumina FASTQ reads
      • This will replace Velvet as the FASTQ assembler
    • Updated Microbe dashboard wizard to reflect changes
      • Do not have to specify short/long reads, or single-end/paired-end, since those were options specific to Velvet.  SPAdes will automatically determine if tag is single-end or paired-end.
    • Can now transfer Chado SQL annotation file and BER results to a Manatee VM for future genome annotation viewing and manual curation.
  • CloVR Comparative
    • Fixed issue where Sybil instances were broken by installing older version of MongoDB Perl CPAN module.
  • Various minor bug fixes
