Tools and databases for gene co-linearity and conserved pairs and clusters

[wangdp]

I would like to introduce a suite of tools that are dedicated to the detection and visualization of conserved gene pairs and gene clusters, which can be used to study the co-linear phenomenon in the gene unit in a wide range of applications for your genome relevant studies.

DLGP: http://lcgbase.big.ac.cn/DLGP/

This database includes 134 animal and plant nuclear genome data.

Plastid-LCGbase: http://lcgbase.big.ac.cn/plastid-LCGbase/

This database contains 470 plastid genomes, most of which chloroplast genomes.

LCGserver: http://lcgbase.big.ac.cn/LCGserver/

This webserver works for exploring evolutionary dynamics of gene orders over diverse lineages with the input data from users.
