Difficulty: Easy
Estimated Time: 5 minutes
New Programs Used: SynMap
Lesson
Introduction
The image to the right is a syntenic dotplot. This lesson teaches what a syntenic dotplot is, how it is used, and why it is useful. You will also learn how to create a syntenic dotplot through SynMap.
Syntenic Dotplots
Syntenic Dotplots compare two genomes to eachother. In the picture to the right the green dots show homologous regions, regions where there a similar genes.
