IGGPIPE

To view README on your computer, open README.html in a browser. It will show the IGGPIPE version number above. File README.asciidoc is meant to be viewed on GitHub and does not show the version number. File Version.txt also has the version number.

The BradyLab/IGGPIPE GitHub repository contains code and documentation for the software package called IGGPIPE (Indel Group in Genomes Pipeline).

IGGPIPE analyzes two or more genomes for length-polymorphic regions bounded by unique sequences and designs PCR primers within these sequences. The primers can be used to amplify the region from genomic DNA of any of the species used to create the markers, and the amplicon size will indicate which species the DNA came from - an IGG marker.

Download, Installation, and Running

Requirements

• Installation has been tested on 64-bit Mac OSX, 64-bit Linux, and 64-bit Windows. It will not work on 32-bit systems (due to dependency on Jellyfish2).

• See the INSTALL document section Detailed Installation Instructions Part 4: Install prerequisite applications for instructions to install these required programs:

  1. Xcode (V6.4 works) (Apple App Store; make and g++)

  2. Jellyfish V2 or later (V2.2.3 works) (http://www.genome.umd.edu/jellyfish.html)

  3. Perl V5 or later (V5.16.0 works) (https://www.perl.org/get.html)

  4. R V3 or later (V3.2.1 works) (https://www.r-project.org)

  5. Primer3 (V2.3.6 works) (http://sourceforge.net/projects/primer3)

  6. NCBI e-PCR (V2.3.12-1 works) (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/tools/epcr)

  7. MUSCLE (V3.8.31 works) (http://www.drive5.com/muscle/downloads.htm)
