Syntax

This tool creates a dot plot of the contents of a LASTZ tabular file resulting from the alignment of one or more sequences to a single reference sequence.

If multiple query sequences are present, they will be sorted by size, offset from one another in the dot plot, and separated by a gray line.

• filter all alignments shorter than the filter will be excluded from the analysis.

Example

Chicken chromosome 4 was aligned against human chromosome 4 using LASTZ, specifying tabular output, no transitions, and performing gap free extension.

Using a 100 bp filter above we get the following dotplot.
