Multiple sequence alignment quality comparison in T-Coffee, MUSCLE and M-Coffee based on different benchmarks
2021

Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is a fundamental process in the studies for determination of evolutionary, structural and functional relationships of biological sequences or organisms. ...
There are various heuristic approaches comparing more than two sequences to generate MSA. However, each tool used for MSA is not suitable for every dataset. ...

A parallel approach of COFFEE objective function to multiple sequence alignment
2015
Journal of Physics, Conference Series
With high computational costs of deterministic algorithms for sequence alignments, many works concentrate their efforts in the development of heuristic approaches to multiple sequence alignments. ...
The standard objective function implemented in the tool is the Weighted Sum of Pairs (WSP), which produces some distortions in the final alignments when sequences sets with low similarity are aligned. ...
Thus, as an alternative, we started to use heuristic techniques, especially for multiple sequence alignment. ...

Genetics of coffee quality
2006
Brazilian Journal of Plant Physiology
An improvement is obtained for bean size, with significant genetic gains in current breeding programmes. ...
Coffee quality, in the present context of overproduction worldwide, has to be considered as a main selection criterion for coffee improvement. ...
These markers will be useful for population structure analysis and genetic mapping. Furthermore, they will allow the mapping of functional genomic sequences. ...

1995
From Kendal's Coffee House to Great George Street
This paper explores the potential of low-fidelity desktop simulation as an integrated element of the overall simulation-based curriculum, and as a 'wrap-around" for high-fidelity simulation. ...
The paper provides a series of examples to illustrate an integrated curriculum, and highlights areas in which both efficiencies and enhancements might be achieved. ...
Not only must each curriculum component embed each of the nine events of instruction, but each component must also be aligned with an overall instructional objective and integrated into a coherent instructional ...
