IRIDA 0.21.0 Released

IRIDA has been upgraded to version 0.21.0.  This version contains the following updates:

New Pipelines

This release adds 2 new pipelines to IRIDA: MentaLiST and RefSeq Masher. Both of these pipelines can be run as usual from the pipeline launch page.

MentaLiST

MentaLiST is a MLST pipeline based on a k-mer counting algorithm, specifically designed and implemented to handle large typing schemes. Documentation on running MentaLiST can be found in the IRIDA tutorials pages at https://irida.corefacility.ca/documentation/user/tutorials/mentalist/

RefSeq Masher

This pipeline incorporates the popular MASH analysis tool into IRIDA. RefSeq Masher searches your sequence data against a Mash database of 54,925 NCBI RefSeq Genomes to find what NCBI RefSeq genomes match or are contained within your sequence data. A tutorial for this tool can also be found in our documentation at https://irida.corefacility.ca/documentation/user/tutorials/refseq_masher/

Previewing Analysis Results

IRIDA now allows you to preview all files created by a pipeline on the analysis output page. All available files can be seen from the Preview tab.
