Basic bioinformatics and command-line tools for phytopathologists: How to handle, explore, and organize big biological data
On Demand video is available to both workshop registrants and Unlimited Plant Health 2020 registrants.
Workshop Description:
High-throughput sequencing technologies have significantly improved the generation of large data sets of omics information (genomes, transcriptomes, proteomics and microbiomes). Administration and analysis of big data in the omics-era to understand complex biological systems present a new challenge for plant pathologists. Analysis of big and complex data sets requires use of computational tools that interact with databases and computer servers. The command line interface allows users to interact with computers both locally and in server to conduct computationally intensive analyses. In this workshop, we will explore different usages of command line interface for bioinformatic analyses. We will introduce the cluster computing system, Linux shell, and shell scripting. We will use unix commands to parse sequence and text files followed by application of local BLAST and data parsing. Different genome data analyses using command line interface will be discussed.
