This software is maintained by Bruno Contreras-Moreira (bcontreras at eead.csic.es) and Pablo Vinuesa (vinuesa at ccg.unam.mx). The original version, suitable for bacterial genomes, was described in:
Contreras-Moreira B, Vinuesa P (2013) Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 79:7696-7701
Vinuesa P, Contreras-Moreira B (2015) Methods in Molecular Biology Volume 1231, 203-232
The software was then adapted to the study of intra-specific eukaryotic pan-genomes resulting in script GET_HOMOLOGUES-EST, described in:
Contreras-Moreira B, Cantalapiedra CP et al (2017) Front. Plant Sci. 10.3389/fpls.2017.00184
GET_HOMOLOGUES-EST has been tested with genomes and transcriptomes of Arabidopsis thaliana and Hordeum vulgare, available at http://floresta.eead.csic.es/plant-pan-genomes.
A tutorial is available, covering typical examples of both GET_HOMOLOGUES and GET_HOMOLOGUES-EST.
The code is regularly patched (see CHANGES.txt in each release), and has been used in a variety of studies (see citing papers here).
We kindly ask you to report errors or bugs in the program to the authors and to acknowledge the use of the program in scientific publications.

Installation instructions are summarized on README.txt and full documentation is available in two flavours:
