Viral genomes sequencing data analysis

Here you find three hands-on tutorials demonstrating sequencing data analysis with Galaxy for three, rather different viral pathogens in increasing order of analysis complexity. Feel free to work through all three of them or just pick the one covering the virus you are most interested in, but consider watching first the introductory video, which explains some of the particularities of each virus and the corresponding analysis challenges.

From NCBI's Sequence Read Archive (SRA) to Galaxy: SARS-CoV-2 variant analysis
Avian influenza viral strain analysis from gene segment sequencing data
Pox virus genome analysis from tiled-amplicon sequencing data

SARS-CoV-2 genome surveillance system

Learn about how to scale up your Galaxy-based viral sequencing data analysis to batches of samples and how to automate the processing of such batches for highest sample throughput. Watch the introductory video for an overview of the contents of this section and how the pieces are connected.
