RCircos: an R package for Circos 2D track plots

Jit — Fri, 20 May 2016 11:01:13 -0500

RCircos package provides a simple and flexible way to make Circos 2D track plots with R and could be easily integrated into other R data processing and graphic manipulation pipelines for presenting large-scale multi-sample genomic research data. It can also serve as a base tool to generate complex Circos images.

vcfR

Archana Malhotra — Fri, 19 Aug 2016 07:38:24 -0500

Most variant calling pipelines result in files containing large quantities of variant information. The variant call format (vcf) is an increasingly popular format for this data. The format of these files and their content is discussed in the vignette ‘vcf data.’ These files are typically intended to be post-processed (i.e., filtered) as an attempt to remove false positives or otherwise problematic sites. The R package vcfR provides tools to facilitate this filtering as well as to visualize the effects of choices made during this process.

UpSetR: An R Package for the Visualization of Intersecting Sets and their Properties

BioStar — Mon, 28 Jan 2019 18:38:44 -0600

UpSetR generates static UpSet plots. The UpSet technique visualizes set intersections in a matrix layout and introduces aggregates based on groupings and queries. The matrix layout enables the effective representation of associated data, such as the number of elements in the aggregates and intersections, as well as additional summary statistics derived from subset or element attributes.

For further details about the original technique see the UpSet website. You can also check out the UpSetR shiny app. Here is the source code for the shiny wrapper.

A Python package called py-upset to create UpSet plots has been created by GitHub user ImSoErgodic.

ReConPlot: an R package for the visualization and interpretation of genomic rearrangements

LEGE — Thu, 14 Dec 2023 12:33:19 -0600

ReConPlot (REarrangement and COpy Number PLOT), an R package that provides functionalities for the joint visualization of SCNAs and SVs across one or multiple chromosomes. ReConPlot is based on the popular ggplot2 package, thus allowing customization of plots and the generation of publication-quality figures with minimal effort.

WEGO : simple but useful tool for visualizing, comparing and plotting GO (Gene Ontology) annotation results

BioStar — Sun, 12 Apr 2020 10:02:22 -0500

WEGO (Web Gene Ontology Annotation Plot) is a simple but useful tool for visualizing, comparing and plotting GO (Gene Ontology) annotation results. As the GO vocabulary became more and more popular, WEGO was widely adopted and used in many researches. Therefore we have updated WEGO 2.0 in 2018. Here are some changes we’ve made:
1. The limit of input file numbers was cancelled. Now the users could upload as many files as they want with one operation.
2. We have added the reference data of 9 species for users selection.
3. Besides the traditional WEGO histogram, WEGO 2.0 outputs an additional type of bar graph showing GO terms with significant gene number differences.

GMOL: An Interactive Tool for 3D Genome Structure Visualization

Jit — Wed, 21 Mar 2018 12:25:20 -0500

GMOL was developed based upon our multi-scale approach that allows a user to scale between six separate levels within the genome. With GMOL, a user can choose any unit at any scale and scale it up or down to visualize its structure and retrieve corresponding genome sequences.

Bandage: interactive visualization of de novo genome assemblies

Shruti Paniwala — Mon, 04 Dec 2017 10:09:37 -0600

Bandage (a Bioinformatics Application for Navigating De novo Assembly Graphs Easily) is a tool for visualizing assembly graphs with connections. Users can zoom in to specific areas of the graph and interact with it by moving nodes, adding labels, changing colors and extracting sequences. BLAST searches can be performed within the Bandage graphical user interface and the hits are displayed as highlights in the graph. By displaying connections between contigs, Bandage presents new possibilities for analyzing de novo assemblies that are not possible through investigation of contigs alone.

Availability and implementation: Source code and binaries are freely available at https://github.com/rrwick/Bandage. Bandage is implemented in C++ and supported on Linux, OS X and Windows. A full feature list and screenshots are available at http://rrwick.github.io/Bandage.

GfaViz: flexible and interactive visualization of GFA sequence graphs

Jit — Thu, 23 Jan 2020 07:33:46 -0600

GFA (Graphical Fragment Assembly) is an emerging standard format for representing sequence graphs. Although it was originally conceived as a format for sequence assembly (hence the name), and this remains its core application, it is more general, and able to represent many different types of sequence graphs, including scaffolding graphs, alignment graphs, variant graphs and splicing graphs.
