Heng Li has an excellent overview table on next generation sequence alignment viewers (as well as alignment programs) – thanks to TB for pointing me to that site. The Broad Institute has just bought another 30 Illumina Genome Analyzer – they now own 89 so the Broad people might have clearly a need for visualizing data.
The best choice is not easy to make – I am trying now the IGV in my lung sequence project. Annother interesting piece of software not listed by the Heng Li table is annoj that looks promising too, yea, yea.
