Popis: Abstract Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli are major food-borne human pathogens, and their genomes are routinely sequenced for clinical surveillance. Computational pipelines designed for analyzing pathogen genomes should both utilize the most current information from annotation databases and increase the coverage of these databases over time. We report the development of the GEA pipeline to analyze large batches of E. coli and S. enterica genomes. The GEA pipeline takes as input paired Illumina raw reads files which are then assembled followed by annotation. Alternatively, assemblies can be provided as input and directly annotated. The pipeline provides predictive genome annotations for E. coli and S. enterica with a focus on the Center for Genomic Epidemiology tools. Annotation results are provided as a tab delimited text file. The GEA pipeline is designed for large-scale E. coli and S. enterica genome assembly and characterization using the Center for Genomic Epidemiology command-line tools and high-performance computing. Large scale annotation is demonstrated by an analysis of more than 14,000 Salmonella genome assemblies. Testing the GEA pipeline on E. coli raw reads demonstrates reproducibility across multiple compute environments and computational usage is optimized on high performance computers.
