· 2 min read
Last February 17-19, 2014, a bioinformatics workshop was held at Deakin University - Geelong Waterfront Campus. The workshop covered Genotype By Sequences (GBS)_ _methodologies using various well known bioinformatics tools. The two main tools used in the workshop were Trait Analysis by aSSociation, Evolution and Linkage (TASSEL) and Bowtie. TASSEL is used to investigate relationships between phenotypes and genotypes while Bowtie is a tool used to align DNA sequences to the human genome.
