JAMMA (Highly-Accelerated Multi-method Mixed-Model Association) is an open-source Python and C implementation of GEMMA's core linear mixed-model workflows for genome-wide association studies (GWAS). It reads PLINK binary genotypes and supports kinship estimation, Wald, likelihood-ratio and score association tests, covariates, multiple phenotypes, and leave-one-chromosome-out (LOCO) analysis. JAMMA provides a command-line interface with familiar GEMMA flags, GEMMA-compatible association output, and a Python API. Native C kernels, parallel computation and reusable eigendecompositions support large analyses. Pre-flight memory checks and streamed output help manage memory use. Numerical validation against GEMMA is documented. JAMMA runs on Linux, macOS and Windows; large-cohort analyses require sufficient RAM and a suitable 64-bit BLAS configuration. Released under GPL-3.0-or-later.

pyLocusZoom is an open-source Python library for visualizing genome-wide association study (GWAS) results. It creates LocusZoom-style regional association plots with linkage disequilibrium (LD) coloring, gene and exon tracks, and recombination overlays. Additional plots include Manhattan, QQ, Miami, eQTL, fine-mapping credible sets, PheWAS, forest plots, LD heatmaps and colocalization comparisons. Matplotlib provides static figures; Plotly and Bokeh provide interactive views. The library accepts pandas DataFrames and includes loaders for PLINK, GEMMA, REGENIE, BOLT-LMM, SAIGE, GTEx, SuSiE and FINEMAP outputs. It supports canine and feline reference data, automatic Ensembl gene annotations, and custom reference data for other species. LD can be supplied or calculated with PLINK. Requires Python 3.10 or later and is released under GPL-3.0-or-later.

Freely available tools for biological computing in Python, with included cookbook, packaging and thorough documentation. Part of the [Open Bioinformatics Foundation](http://open-bio.org/). Contains the very useful [Entrez](https://biopython.org/DIST/docs/api/Bio.Entrez-module.html) package for API access to the NCBI databases.

Minimap2 is an pairwise aligner for genomic and spliced nucleotide sequences. It can perform the assembly-to-assembly alignment, and works with gzip'd FASTQ, FASTA formats. It also finds overlaps between long-reads.
