Phylogeographic reconstructions serve as a basis to understand the spread and evolution of pathogens. Visualization of these reconstructions often lead to complex graphical representations which are difficult to interpret.
We present EvoLaps, a user-friendly web interface to visualize phylogeographic reconstructions based on the analysis of latitude/longitude coordinates with various clustering levels. EvoLaps also produces transition diagrams that provide concise and easy to interpret summaries of phylogeographic reconstructions.
The main contribution of EvoLaps is to assemble known numerical and graphical methods/tools into a user-friendly interface dedicated to the visualization and edition of evolutionary scenarios based on continuous phylogeographic reconstructions. EvoLaps is freely usable at www.evolaps.org .
系统发生地理学重建可作为理解病原体传播和进化的基础。这些重建的可视化通常导致复杂的图形表示,难以解释。
我们提出了 EvoLaps,这是一个用户友好的网络界面,用于可视化基于纬度/经度坐标分析的系统发生地理学重建,具有各种聚类层次。EvoLaps 还生成转换图,提供简洁且易于解释的系统发生地理学重建摘要。
EvoLaps 的主要贡献是将已知的数值和图形方法/工具组合到一个用户友好的界面中,该界面专门用于基于连续系统发生地理学重建的可视化和编辑进化场景。EvoLaps 可免费在 www.evolaps.org 使用。
