We present GenomeDiagram, a flexible, open-source Python module for the visualization of large-scale genomic, comparative genomic and other data with reference to a single chromosome or other biological sequence. GenomeDiagram may be used to generate publication-quality vector graphics, rastered images and in-line streamed graphics for webpages. The package integrates with datatypes from the BioPython project, and is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X systems.
GenomeDiagram is freely available as source code (under GNU Public License) at http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/lp/programs.html, and requires Python 2.3 or higher, and recent versions of the ReportLab and BioPython packages.
A user manual, example code and images are available at http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/lp/programs.html.
我们展示了GenomeDiagram,这是一个灵活的开源Python模块,用于参照单条染色体或其他生物序列对大规模基因组、比较基因组及其他数据进行可视化。GenomeDiagram可用于生成适用于出版物的高质量矢量图形、光栅图像以及用于网页的内联流式图形。该软件包与BioPython项目的数据类型集成,适用于Windows、Linux和Mac OS X系统。
GenomeDiagram可在http://bioinf.scri.ac.uk/lp/programs.html上免费获取源代码(遵循GNU公共许可证),需要Python 2.3或更高版本,以及最新版本的ReportLab和BioPython软件包。
