    Looking for comparative genomics tools for prokaryotes

    Hello! I'm looking for a sofrware that's able to compare the genomes between different subtypes of a specie(or multiply strains) and determine which genes are present in one subtype but not the other and if there are any mutations unique to each subtype. EDGAR seems perfect for this purpose, since it has the functions I need and has a large database, but it's an online tool. Can anyone suggest a software or command line tool that's able to achieve what EDGAR does, but can install locally? Thank you very much!

    Best,
    Ben

    Consider using Mauve for this application.

        Corrigendum required for EDGAR paper, since EDGAR is NOT opensource!

        In their EDGAR paper published in the BMC Bioinformatics 2009, 10:154:


        they mention that this tool is licensed under the GNU GPL license (Is opensource) - see PDF of the paper, page 12, but since there is no link to EDGAR sources available on the EDGAR website, it is NOT opensource.

        If any part of EDGAR research was funded with the intention of making both sources of the tool(s) and service available online, than it must be revised, and either:

        1. Sources of all EDGAR pipeline components made available on github/bitbucket/etc to the general public.

        Or

        2. Funding of the original EDGAR grant revised/repaid back to the funding body.

          The part about this topic feels surprisingly grounded, and the details on the page is the bit that made me slow down. I’d keep <a href="https://kinpict.com/">ai family photo generator</a> bookmarked for later.

          16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
          by SEQadmin2





          NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...
