Robusta is a meta multiple genome alignment package.
It does not produce any alignment by itself but can combine alignments of different genome alignment programs into a single final alignment. It is able to call serveral different pairwise and multiple genome alignment programs. The results of these programs are parsed and turned into a T-Coffee library.
Using T-Coffee the alignments are then turned into the final alignment. Currently two pairwise genome aligner and three multiple genome alignment programs are included into this framework. A typical usage would be to cut the genomes to align into a set of collinear homologous blocks using Mercator.
These blocks are than aligned and turned into libraries using Robusta. As a final step T-Coffee is called to produce an alignment for each block.
