I wrote a script to run and combine results of multiple metagenome binners using Docker containers to automate and standardize my workflow on different computers.

Short R example on how to download the complete taxonomic lineage information for a number of NCBI taxids.

The title says it all: Here I describe how I extracted rRNA from lichen meta-transcriptomes.

In this post I describe how I usually use MAKER2 to predict genes in the fungal genomes I have sequenced. This post does not cover installing MAKER, which I will save for another time.

In this blog I will mainly write about my struggles with computational biology. In my case that includes the analysis of high-throughput sequencing data, phylogenetics and phylogenetic comparative methods.
