Abstract

Summary: The software package DNAVis offers a fast, interactive and real-time visualization of DNA sequences and their comparative genome annotations. DNAVis implements advanced methods of information visualization such as linked views, perspective walls and semantic zooming, in addition to the display of heterologous data in dot plot-like matrix views. Availability: The software is freely available at www.win.tue.nl/dnavis; the source code is available upon request.
