SuperPang 0.8.1

Non-redundant pangenome assemblies from multiple genomes or bins

SuperPang: non-redundant pangenome assemblies from multiple genomes or bins

Installation

Requires graph-tool, mOTUlizer v0.2.4, minimap2 and mappy. The easiest way to get it running is using conda.

# Install into a new conda environment
conda create -n SuperPang -c conda-forge -c bioconda -c fpusan superpang
# Check that it works for you!
conda activate SuperPang
test-SuperPang.py

Usage

SuperPang.py --fasta <genome1.fasta> <genome2.fasta> <genomeN.fasta> --checkm <check_results> --output-dir <output_directory>

Arguments

• -f/--fasta: Input fasta files with the sequences for each bin/genome
• -q/--checkm: CheckM output for the bins. This can be the STDOUT of running checkm on all the fasta files passed in --fasta, or a tab-delimited file in the form genome1 percent_completeness. If empty, completeness will be estimated by mOTUpan but this may lead to wrong estimations for very incomplete genomes.
• -i/--identity_threshold: Identity threshold (fraction) to initiate correction with minimap2. Default 0.9.
• -m/--mismatch-size-threshold: Maximum contiguous mismatch size that will be corrected. Default 100.
• -g/--indel-size-threshold: Maximum contiguous indel size that will be corrected. Default 100.
• -r/--correction-repeats: Maximum iterations for sequence correction. Default 5.
• -n/--correction-repeats-min: Minimum iterations for sequence correction. Default 5.
• -k/--ksize: Kmer-size. Default 301.
• -l/--minlen: Scaffold length cutoff. Default 0 (no cutoff).
• -c/--mincov: Scaffold coverage cutoff. Default 0 (no cutoff).
• -b/--bubble-identity-threshold: Minimum identity (matches / alignment length) required to remove a bubble in the sequence graph.
• -a/--genome-assignment-threshold. Fraction of shared kmers required to assign a contig to an input genome (0 means a shared kmer is enough). Default 0.5.
• -x/--default-completeness: Default genome completeness to assume if a CheckM output is not provided with --checkm. Default 50.
• -t/--threads: Number of processors to use. Default 1.
• -o/--output: Output directory. Default output.
• --assume-complete: Assume that the input genomes are complete (--genome-assignment-threshold 0.95, --default-completeness 95).
• --minimap2-path: Path to the minimap2 executable. Default minimap2.
• --keep-intermediate: Keep intermediate files.

Output

• assembly.fasta: contigs.
• assembly.info: core/auxiliary and path information for each contig.
• nodes.fasta: assembly nodes.
• core.fasta: assembly nodes deemed to belong to the core genome of the species by mOTUpan.
• auxiliary.fasta: assembly nodes deemed to belong to the auxiliary genome of the species.
• graph.fastg: assembly graph in a format compatible with bandage.
• node2origins.tsv: tab-separated file with the assembly nodes, and a comma-separated list of the input genome in which that node was deemed present.
• params.tsv: parameters used in the run.
