Abstract

Summary:BugView is a Java application for visualizing homologous genes on a pair of related genomes, and can also be used to view individual genomes. It accepts files of prokaryotic or eukaryotic genomes in GenBank format and allows users to assign homologous pairs, and make and save annotations.
