Comment on "Tools to detect synteny blocks regions among multiple genomes"
Thanks for such an informative blog. I notice MCScan is missing. MCScan is an algorithm able to scan multiple genomes or subgenomes in order to identify putative homologous chromosomal regions, and align these regions using genes as anchors.
