The Genome view can display multiple experiments, chromosomes, contigs or sequences simultaneously.
To access the Genome view, do any of the following:
- Press the Home () button tool.
- Use the View > Genome > Show command.
- Click on the Genome tab.
- Use the navigation tools to choose (Genome) from the drop-down menu.
Depending on the type of data in the session, the view may initially appear as plain gray bars, gray alternating with orange, or alternating blocks of blue and green, as shown below. Regardless of the selection, the information can be viewed at any zoom level.
Use the drop-down menu in the upper left of the view to choose how to display data in this view:
- No data displayed – displays gray bars showing only the relative lengths of the contigs or chromosomes.
- Region capture – if the SeqMan NGen assembly involved a region capture file (BED, VCF), the captured regions are overlaid on the gray bars in orange.
- Phase blocks – If the SeqMan NGen assembly used long-read data and whole genome variant analysis, phased regions are overlaid on the bars as alternating green and blue blocks.
To display a contig or chromosome in the Analysis view or Overview, double-click on it in this view.
