- IMG Sequence Similarity Search
Presenters: Natalia Ivanova & Rekha Seshadri
Watch a recording of the webinar
Q and A
Learn how to compare your sequences of interest to IMG genomes and metagenomes using BLAST and LAST searches.
- Analysis Carts and Workspace
Presenters: Natalia Ivanova & Amy Chen
Watch a recording of the webinar
Q and A
An overview of IMG Analysis Cart and Workspace capabilities for storing and analyzing the data. Also learn how to create an IMG group to share private genomes and Workspace datasets with colleagues.
- Statistical Analysis Tool
Presenters: Rekha Seshadri & Simon Roux
Watch a recording of the webinar
Q and A
Perform statistical comparisons of gene counts across discrete groups of isolate genomes or metagenomes.
- ANI (Average Nucleotide Identity)
Presenters: Neha Varghese & Rekha Seshadri.
Watch a recording of the webinar
Q and A
Learn how ANI is computed and interpreted for species delineation. Browse or search these pre-computed isolates’ clusters in IMG.
- Genome Search – Advanced Search Builder
Presenters: Natalia Ivanova & Rekha Seshadri
Watch a recording of the webinar
Q and A
Find and filter IMG datasets using various metadata options with the NEW Advanced Search Builder function. Identify isolates or metagenomes arising from specific environments (e.g., plant rhizosphere, marine sediment, rumen) and with specific sequence or project attributes like GC%, size, sequencing method, assembly method, and much more
- IMG data export and download
Presenters: Natalia Ivanova & Rekha Seshadri
Watch a recording of the webinar
Q and A
Learn how to download sequence (genes, scaffolds) and annotation data for individual or multiple genomes and metagenomes. We will demonstrate how to export results from searches and analyses into Excel.
- Metagenome Bins
Presenters: Emiley Eloe-Fadrosh & Simon Roux
Watch a recording of the webinar
Q and A -
-
This webinar will focus on the ‘genome bins’ resources available for IMG Metagenomes. You will learn how to browse, search, and identify publicly available genome bins, and how to recover and interpret the quality and taxonomy information associated with each genome bin.
- GOLD-IMG Webinar: Data Submission & Management
Presenters: T.B.K. Reddy, Supratim Mukherjee, & Marcel Huntemann
Watch a recording of the webinar
Q and A
How to submit metadata for your sample to GOLD, sequence assemblies to IMG for annotation, and check the status of that submission. Also, learn to share your private genomes with colleagues and how to release your data to the public. What happens behind the scenes? – the IMG annotation pipeline will be summarized.
