ECuADOR-Easy Curation of Angiosperm Duplicated Organellar Regions, a tool for cleaning and curating plastomes assembled from next generation sequencing pipelines.

ABSTRACT:

Background

With the rapid increase in availability of genomic resources offered by Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and the availability of free online genomic databases, efficient and standardized metadata curation approaches have become increasingly critical for the post-processing stages of biological data. Especially in organelle-based studies using circular chloroplast genome datasets, the assembly of the main structural regions in random order and orientation represents a major limitation in our ability to easily generate "ready-to-align" datasets for phylogenetic reconstruction, at both small and large taxonomic scales. In addition, current practices discard the most variable regions of the genomes to facilitate the alignment of the remaining coding regions. Nevertheless, no
