Web tools and sites

Last update: 23 February 2022

The unit has developed in partnership, specific websites and bioinformatics tools dedicated to NTDs-Tryp or generic research tools.

Atlas of the leishmanies

The website http://leishmania.ird.fr/ is an atlas that presents mapped and referenced information on many leishmania species, their vectors – the sandflies, the potential reservoir animals, as well as the molecular diagnostic tools.

Geometrical morphometry of vectors

XYOM (for X, Y Online Morphometrics) is a geometric morphometrics software applied to vectors, with 2D digitizing and online geometric analysis. https://xyom.io/me

GIGWA management and exploration of high-throughput genotyping data

GIGWA is a web-based tool that allows an easy and intuitive access to explore huge datasets of high-throughput genotyping data. It allows easy exploration, to choose filters on variants, including filters on functional annotations. It is interoperable with many tools, and has multiple export formatsn.

WIDDE exploration of the genetic diversity of bovines and other species

WIDDE is a database dedicated to the storage and management of high-throughput genotyping data. It includes tools such as dataset filters, genotype quality, standard analysis of population genetics (Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test, Principal Component Analysis), and export in different formats.

WIDDE also allows the uploading of one’s own dataset and the assignment of individuals to a population.  WIDDE currently contains data on cattle (146 populations) and sheep. 

metaXplor: an interactive viral and microbial metagenomic data manager

metaXplor is a scalable, distributable, fully web-interfaced application for managing, sharing, and exploring metagenomic data. It allows efficient management and exploration of metagenomic data.
