OrthoFinder: accurate gene families made easy!

[Steve_Kelly]

Hi All,

I just wanted to post a shameless plug for our new gene family (orthogroup) finding software called OrthoFinder that has just come out in GenomeBiology.

If you looking to cluster protein coding genes from your newly sequenced genomes, or looking to do some comparative analysis of gene families in multiple species then please check it out and shout if you encounter any problems!

New release of OrthoFinder

Faster, more options, added flexibility. Making gene families (orthogroups) from whole genomes with just one command just got even easier.

How the SpeciesTreeAlignment

Dear all

Please , how the SpeciesTreeAlignment.fa is generated in orthofinder? this file is located inside the Alignement directory it contains the alignment for different orthogroups. I want to know if this was generated with the concatenation of the core orthgroups or with all the Orthogroups. Or any additional explanations. are welcome.

Thanks in advance for your help
