Bio Comparative Genomics Whole Genome Duplication

biotender-max/bio-comparative-genomics-whole-genome-duplication

Detect, date, and contextualize whole-genome duplication (WGD / paleopolyploidy) events using wgd v2 (Chen & Zwaenepoel 2024), KsRates (Sensalari 2022 substitution-rate-corrected Ks dating), DupGen_finder (Qiao 2019), MAPS (Li 2018 phylogenomic), POInT (Conant 2008 ordered-block), SLEDGe (2024 ML-based), Whale.jl (Bayesian DTL+WGD), and synteny-anchored paranome construction. Use when identifying ancient polyploidy from Ks distributions and synteny block analysis, positioning WGD events relative to speciation, distinguishing tandem from segmental from WGD duplications, dating the 2R/3R vertebrate / fish / salmonid WGDs, building paranome and Ks-age mixture models, applying KsRates substitution-rate correction across lineages, or testing alternative biased-fractionation / dosage-balance models post-WGD.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take biotender-max/bio-comparative-genomics-whole-genome-duplication from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference pip. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
