OpenRDP | An open-source re-implementation of the RDP4 recombination

OpenRDP is a Python library. OpenRDP has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has build file available, it has a Strong Copyleft License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

OpenRDP is an open-source re-implementation of the RDP recombination detection program. RDP is a widely popular program for detecting recombination in genetic sequences - however, it has only been available as Windows binaries. The developers of RDP, specifically Darren Martin, kindly provided the source code for the most recent version (RDP5) and permission to modify and redistribute this code. This program runs a suite of recombination detection methods to filter recombinant nucleotide sequences from a multiple sequence alignment; or to detect recombination breakpoints in a query sequence by comparing it against a reference set. We have re-implemented most of this code in the Python programming language, with the exception of some of the standalone third-party binaries (3Seq and GENECONV). 3Seq is released under the Creative Commons license (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0), which restricts commerical use. Similarly, GENECONV is licensed for academic use and distribution, but commercial use is restricted. For your convenience, we package these binaries along with their respective licenses.
