Or do you want to explore the data in an interactive genome browser? There are many packages in Bioconductor for plotting this sort of data, including GenomeGraphs and HilbertVis. For genome browsers, there's rtracklayer and others. For example, with rtracklayer: session <- browserSession() session$coverage <- as(coverage, "RangedData") > Thanks! > -Abhi > > _______________________________________________ > Bioc-sig-sequencing mailing list > [email protected] > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioc-sig-sequencing > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ Bioc-sig-sequencing mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioc-sig-sequencing
