geneviewer: Gene Cluster Visualizations

Provides tools for plotting gene clusters and transcripts by importing data from GenBank, FASTA, and GFF files. It performs global pairwise protein alignments and 'MUMmer' alignments [Needleman and Wunsch (1970) <doi:10.1016/0022-2836(70)90057-4>; Delcher et al. (1999) <doi:10.1093/nar/27.11.2369>] and displays results on gene arrow maps. Extensive customization options are available, including legends, labels, annotations, scales, colors, tooltips, and more.
