GeneticsMakie.jl: a versatile and scalable toolkit for visualizing locus-level genetic and genomic data.

ABSTRACT:

Summary

With the continued deluge of results from genome-wide association and functional genomic studies, it has become increasingly imperative to quickly combine and visualize different layers of genetic and genomic data within a given locus to facilitate exploratory and integrative data analyses. While several tools have been developed to visualize locus-level genetic results, the limited speed, scalability and flexibility of current approaches remain a significant bottleneck. Here, we present a Julia package for high-performance genetics and genomics-related data visualization that enables fast, simultaneous plotting of hundreds of association results along with multiple relevant genomic annotations. Leveraging the powerful plotting and layout utilities from Makie.jl facilitates
