Software and open resources.

Tools, workflows, and reproducible project resources created to solve practical problems in pangenomics and comparative genomics.

Open tools / 01

Methods you can inspect and reuse.

Each repository connects to a concrete research need: association on genome graphs, analysis of complex polyploids, or readable multi-genome synteny.

NodeGWAS

Graph pangenome association toolkit

A graph-node-based workflow for sensitive association analysis across diploid and polyploid species. It counts node support from graph alignments, builds marker tables, and maps significant nodes back to linear coordinates.

Saccharum-pg

Multiscale super-pangenome resources

Analysis resources for the polyploid-aware Saccharum pangenome project, organized around chromosome communities, allele variation, homoeolog ecosystems, multi-omics, population genomics, GWAS, and benchmarking.

PanSynVisualization

Pangenome synteny visualization

An R-driven workflow that extracts target regions, aligns sequences, and draws synteny across multiple genomes, with optional phylogenetic-tree integration for comparative interpretation.

Development principles / 02

Research code should carry evidence.

The goal is not software for its own sake. A useful research tool makes an analysis more transparent, repeatable, and open to scrutiny.

01

Question-driven

Start from a biological limitation that existing methods cannot represent or test well.

02

Validated

Use simulations, benchmarks, and interpretable examples to define when a method is reliable.

03

Reusable

Publish code, parameters, and project structure so others can reproduce and extend the analysis.
