InvBFM: finding genomic inversions from high-throughput sequence data based on feature mining.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Filarial nematodes cause debilitating human diseases. While treatable, recent evidence suggests drug resistance is developing, necessitating the development of novel targets and new treatment options. Although transcriptomic and proteomic studies around the nematode life cycle have greatly enhanced our knowl...
