Περίληψη: Summary: Pangenome variation graphs integrate multiple samples into a unified representation, mitigating the reference bias inherent to linear genomes. However, these graphs can be large and structurally complex. Existing visualization tools are each confined to a fixed scale of resolution, requiring researchers to switch between multiple tools to examine variation at different levels of detail. PangyPlot is an interactive pangenome browser designed for multi-scale exploration of reference variation graphs from full chromosome to nucleotide-level sequence segments. PangyPlot anchors navigation to linear reference coordinates, organizes variation into hierarchical bubble structures, and uses a force-directed layout engine for automatic node arrangement.
