NGSpop: A desktop software that supports population studies by identifying sequence variations from next-generation sequencing data.

ABSTRACT: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is widely used in all areas of genetic research, such as genetic disease diagnosis and breeding, and it can produce massive amounts of data. The identification of sequence variants is an important step when processing large NGS datasets; however, currently, the process is complicated, repetitive, and requires concentration, which can be taxing on the researcher. Therefore, to support researchers who are not familiar enough with bioinformatics to identify sequence variations regularly from large datasets, we have developed a fully automated desktop software, NGSpop. NGSpop includes functionalities for all the variant calling and visualization procedures used when processing NGS data, such as quality control, mapping, filtering details, and variant calling. I
