I think that was what John Major was talking about earlier this month:

Yeah, that's what I was wondering: to update megablast tool to use NCBI
BLAST+ .

I revised megablast wrapper a bit to use the legacy_blast.pl from NCBI
BLAST+, but it seems the output format is not compatible with the tool
(Fetch taxonomic representation) in metagenomic analyses anymore.

So it looks like the only solution at the moment is to have both NCBI NCBI+
and an old version of BLAST.

Thanks,
Luobin

Oh - you mean update it to use BLAST+ instead of legacy BLAST
internally? I asked about this too before writing the BLAST+ wrappers
and one major concern was about breaking reproducibility - the newer
BLAST doesn't give identical results.

Also everything the megablast wrapper offers and more is in the blastn
wrapper.

I've noticed these wrappers for BLAST+. I actually was talking about the
megablast tool under NGS Mapping section...

Thanks,

Yes, there are wrappers for the main tools from NCBI BLAST+ including
blastn. They are included in the main Galaxy repository (but not available
on the public Galaxy server due to the expected computational load).

[galaxy-dev] Update on Megablast?

2012-03-23 Thread Luobin Yang
Hi, all,

Since megablast has been replaced by blastn in newer NCBI BLAST tools, I am
wondering if there is an update on megablast web interface and wrapper in
Galaxy?

Thanks,
Luobin
