tree-based orthology inference

Project description

PhyloPyPruner is a Python package for refining the output of a graph-based orthology inference approach such as [OrthoMCL](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12952885), [OrthoFinder](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/26243257) or [HaMStR](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19586527). Similar to other tree-based orthology inference methods (e.g., [PhyloTreePruner](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3825643/), [UPhO](https://academic.oup.com/mbe/article/33/8/2117/2578877), [Agalma](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3840672/) and [Phylogenomic Dataset Reconstruction](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25158799)), it uses phylogenetic trees in order to obtain genes that are 1:1 orthologous. In addition to filters and algorithms seen in pre-existing tools, this package provides new methods for differentiating [contamination-like sequences](https://gitlab.com/fethalen/phylopypruner/wikis/About-PhyloPyPruner#contamination-like-issues-) from paralogs.

PhyloPyPruner is under active development and I would appreciate it if you try this software on your own data and [leave feedback](mailto:felix.thalen@uni-goettingen.de).
