Article Synopsis
  • Multiple sequence alignment (MSA) is crucial for studying genetic variations linked to traits in organisms, but post-analysis can be tough for non-programmers, especially with large data sets.
  • Currently, there are no tools for comprehensive post-MSA analysis that integrate gene data with annotations for effective clustering.
  • "AlignStatPlot" is a new, user-friendly R package and online tool designed for MSA and subsequent analysis, offering improved visualization and efficiency compared to existing options, allowing researchers to better communicate their results.

blight (AB), caused by the fungal pathogen , is a devastating foliar disease of chickpea ( L.). The genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS)-based approach was deployed for mapping QTLs associated with AB resistance in chickpea in two recombinant inbred line populations derived from two crosses (AB derived from ILC 1929 × ILC 3279 and AB derived from ILC 1929 × ILC 482) and tested in six different environments.
