http://www.arb-home.de/

Software environment for maintaining databases of molecular sequences and additional information, and for analyzing the sequence data, with emphasis on phylogeny reconstruction. Programs have primarily been developed for ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) sequences and, therefore, contain special tools for alignment and analysis of these structures. However, other molecular sequence data can also be handled. Protein gene sequences and predicted protein primary structures as well as protein secondary structures can be stored in the same database. ARB package is designed for graphical user interface. Program control and data display are available in a hierarchical set of windows and subwindows. Majority of operations can be controlled using mouse for moving pointer and the left mouse button for initiating and performing operations.

http://www.broadinstitute.org/genome_bio/siphy/

Software that implements rigorous statistical tests to detect bases under selection from a multiple alignment data. It takes full advantage of deeply sequenced phylogenies to estimate both unlikely substitution patterns as well as slowdowns or accelerations in mutation rates. It can be applied as an Hidden Markov Model (HMM), in sliding windows, or to specific regions.

http://neuralensemble.org/neo/

A Python package for representing electrophysiology data, together with support for reading a wide range of neurophysiology file formats, including Spike2, NeuroExplorer, AlphaOmega, Axon, Blackrock, Plexon, Tdt, and support for writing to a subset of these formats plus non-proprietary formats including HDF5. The goal of Neo is to improve interoperability between Python tools for analyzing, visualizing and generating electrophysiology data (such as OpenElectrophy, NeuroTools, G-node, Helmholtz, PyNN) by providing a common, shared object model. In order to be as lightweight a dependency as possible, Neo is deliberately limited to represention of data, with no functions for data analysis or visualization. Neo implements a hierarchical data model well adapted to intracellular and extracellular electrophysiology and EEG data with support for multi-electrodes (for example tetrodes). Neo's data objects build on the quantities package, which in turn builds on NumPy by adding support for physical dimensions. Thus Neo objects behave just like normal NumPy arrays, but with additional metadata, checks for dimensional consistency and automatic unit conversion.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/gmcloser/

Software that fills and closes the gaps present in scaffold assemblies, especially those generated by the de novo assembly of whole genomes with next-generation sequencing (NGS) reads. Unlike other gap-closing tools that use only NGS reads, GMcloser uses preassembled contig sets or long read sets as the sequences to close gaps and uses paired-end (PE) reads and a likelihood-based algorithm to improve the accuracy and efficiency of gap closure. The efficiency of gap closure can be increased by successive treatments with different contig sets.
