CNVkit: Genome-Wide Copy Number Detection and Visualization from Targeted DNA Sequencing
Talevich, Eric, et al. CNVkit: genome-wide copy number detection and visualization from targeted DNA sequencing. PLoS computational biology 12.4 (2016): e1004873.
Abstract
Summary: The amount of gene and genome data obtained by next-generation sequencing technologies generates a need for comparative visualization tools. Complementing existing software for comparison and exploration of genomics data, genoPlotR automatically creates publication-grade linear maps of gene and genomes, in a highly automatic, flexible and reproducible way., , Availability: genoPlotR is a platform-independent R package, available with full source code under a GPL2 license at R-Forge: http://genoplotr.r-forge.r-project.org/
