BOL

genoPlotR is a R package to produce reproducible, publication-grade graphics of gene and genome maps. It allows the user to read from usual format such as protein table files and blast results, as well as home-made tabular files.

Features

• Linear representation of several segments of DNA
• Comparisons represented by areas between the segments (like Artemis, for example)
• Reads from common formats: Genbank, EMBL, blast, Mauve, and from user-generated tab files
• Plot several subsegments of the same segment on the same line, separated by a //
• Automatic or manual placement of the segments on the plot
• Add annotations to all the lines
• Create smart, automatic annotations for genomes, based on gene names
• Add a user-generated tree
• Add a global scale or a scale to each line
• Use user-defined graphical functions to represent genes
