The development of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) during the last decade has created an unprecedented amount of sequencing data, as well as the ability to rapidly sequence specimens of interest. Read-based BLAST analysis of NGS data is a common procedure especially in the case of metagenomic samples. However, coverage is usually not enough to allow for de novo assembly. This type of read-based analysis often creates the question of how a set of reads that align to the same sequence is distributed. The same question applies to preparation of primers or probes for microarray experiments.
We have created BLASTPLOT, a PERL module to quickly plot the BLAST results from short sequences (primers, probes, reads) against reference targets.
BLASTPLOT is a simple to use PERL module that allows the generation of PNG graphs for all the reference sequences associated with a BLAST result set.
BLASTPLOT has only two PERL package dependencies: Math::Round and GD.

Features

  • Easily plot the blast results from your primers, probes or reads
  • Perl package with few dependencies
  • The plots for all your reference sequence are generated at once
