Hi,
Can anyone suggest any good visualization tools for sequence alignments and assembling?
Thanks,
Dicty

The seqanswers wiki is your friend. Examples with:
- assembly visualization
- visualization
- genome browser
There is also a huge thread somewhere about genome browsers, with tablet, igv, igb, jbrowse, etc etc.. i would use the search function of the forum (up there). -
Thanks a lot for your response. It's very helpful.Comment

If you have a genuine assembly that you wish to *edit*, the choice is more restricted. I'll declare an interest/bias as I'm the primary author of Gap5, however I believe Consed has also received updates to allow it to edit NGS assemblies.
That said, if it's just visualisation that you need then the myriad of tools out there listed in the links above will do a fine job, and indeed many will be better than Gap5 would due to DAS source integration and proper handling of reference based coordinates.

Thanks a lot, jkbonfield. Currently I only want to visualize the alignment and assembly results, but probably I will use Staden for further analysis.Comment

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
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...
