Revision history [back]

Dear Austin,

Currently GenomeBrowse will only accept reference sequence tracks that are in our IDF format. At the moment the tools within our analysis software SVS are the only available source for creating IDF files.

We are in the process of developing a tool for GenomeBrowse that will allow the user to import their own files to create these necessary tracks. In the case of reference sequences we will be allowing for direct import of FASTA files to create the IDF tracks necessary for computing coverage information for BAM files. The new functionality is schedule to be implemented by the end of September.

In the meantime I would be happy to create the necessary files for the Potato Genome and make them available for download through GenomeBrowse. The tracks should be complete by the end of the week and I will let you know when you can download them through GenomeBrowse.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks, Jami...
