Aedes and Anopheles mosquito EvidentialGene setsEvidentialGene is a genome informatics project/pipeline for gene set construction that has a measurably high accuracy and completeness rate, compared with other gene informatics methods used for animals and plants. See http://eugenes.org/EvidentialGene/ or https://sourceforge.net/projects/evidentialgene/Gene orthology accuracy and completeness, measured with protein homology to reference species genes, for gene sets of 2 species of malaria vector mosquito Anopheles, and yellow fever/zika virus vector mosquito Aedes aegypti are summarized here for EvidentialGene in comparison with recently published gene sets using now popular gene prediction/assembly methods (MAKER, Trinity and related methods). For both species, EvidentialGene method used the published RNA-seq, assembled it with 4 gene assemblers, then reduced to a concise and accurate locus/alternate gene set. In these 3 tests, Evigene produced the more accurate gene sets, with minimal time and effort. The RNA data sets used were smaller than recommended for complete gene set reconstruction, and additional effort + data will improve these genes. The software pipeline pair of MAKER and Trinity form a common recipe now for genome biologists. Those scientists don't realize that greater accuracy is possible and easier to obtain, I suspect.
