Mapping SNPs to Chromosomes
I have a reference genome (.fa) and its annotation (.gtf) files. I have sequenced both DNA and RNA from test sample and generated vcf files containing SNP and INDEL locations for each chromosome of the reference genome. I want to plot the identified SNPs and INDELs to identify hot spots on each chromosome. I have read about R being useful to do the same but was unable to narrow down on how to get it done. Please advise.......

Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing... -
The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.
This convergence of genetics, immunology, and computation...09-01-2026, 05:41 AM
