mlplasmids FAQ

2 minute read

Published:

mlplasmids is an R package to predict if assembled short-read contigs from E. coli, K. pneunomiae or E. faecium originated from a plasmid or a chromosome. It uses species-specific machine learning classifiers which results in high precision and accuracy. mlplasmids can be used to predict the location of, for example, antibiotic resistance genes and the plasmidome content of a population of a bacterial species. The full description of mlplasmids is available as a preprint at bioRxiv.

How to separate the nesting dolls

less than 1 minute read

Published:

Mobile genetic elements can be nested, like russian dolls. This is also the case for the vanA gene cluster in Enterococcus faecium, which is located on a Tn1546 transposon, which, in turn, is often located on plasmids.

Drawing a tree with colored tips in R (ggtree)

Published:

ggtree is a R package designed for viewing and annotating phylogenetic trees. It is based on the ggplot2 package. Here I will show step-by-step how to draw a tree with colored tips, because, even thought the bioconductor documentation is clear and complete, I did not read about this very common visualization.

SNP pipelines

Popularity of SNP pipelines

Published:

Recently we got back a round of reviews on a small review paper. There was one sentence in the text were I listed some SNP pipelines that I thought were good examples. The topic of the review is not pipelines so the intention was not to list all, just one or two. However reviewer 2 did not agree with my choice of examples. He suggested to omit the name of the pipeline that was unpublished and name a few other published ones instead.
