SynView: a GBrowse-compatible approach to visualizing comparative genome data

Haiming Wang et al. Bioinformatics. 2006.

Abstract

We present SynView, a simple and generic approach to dynamically visualize multi-species comparative genome data. It is a light-weight application based on the popular and configurable web-based GBrowse framework. It can be used with a variety of databases and provides the user with a high degree of interactivity. The tool is written in Perl and runs on top of the GBrowse framework. It is in use in the PlasmoDB (http://www.PlasmoDB.org) and the CryptoDB (http://www.CryptoDB.org) projects and can be easily integrated into other cross-species comparative genome projects.
