pyseer

SEER, reimplemented in python by Marco Galardini and John Lees

pyseer --phenotypes phenotypes.tsv --kmers kmers.gz --distances structure.tsv --min-af 0.01 --max-af 0.99 --cpu 15 --filter-pvalue 1E-8

Run tests Documentation Status Anaconda package

Motivation

Kmers-based GWAS analysis is particularly well suited for bacterial samples, given their high genetic variability. This approach has been implemented by Lees, Vehkala et al., in the form of the SEER software.

The reimplementation presented here should be consistent with the current version of the C++ seer (though we do not guarantee this for all possible cases).

In this version, as well as all the original features, many new features (input types, association models and output parsing) have been implemented. See the documentation and paper for full details.

Documentation

Full documentation is available at readthedocs.

You can also build the docs locally (requires sphinx) by typing:

cd docs/
make html

Prerequisites

Between parenthesis the versions the script was tested against:

  • python 3+ (3.6.6)
  • numpy (1.15.2)
  • scipy (1.1.0)
  • pandas (0.23.4)
  • scikit-learn (0.20.0)
  • statsmodels (0.9.0)
  • pysam (0.15.1)
  • glmnet_python (commit 946b65c)
  • DendroPy (4.4.0)

If you would like to use the scree_plot_pyseer script you will also need to have matplotlib installed. If you would like to use the scripts to map and annotate kmers, you will also need bwa, bedtools, bedops and pybedtools installed.

Installation

The easiest way to install pyseer and its dependencies is through conda::

conda install pyseer

If you need conda, download miniconda and add the necessary channels::

conda config --add channels defaults
conda config --add channels bioconda
conda config --add channels conda-forge

pyseer can also be installed through pip; download this repository (or one of the releases), cd into it, followed by:

python -m pip install .

If you want multithreading make sure that you are using a version 3 python interpreter:

python3 -m pip install .

If you want the next pre-release, just clone/download this repository and run:

python pyseer-runner.py
