The Multiple Alignment Display
The appearance and all features of the multiple alignment display in the Consensus Align tab are very similar to those of the corresponding panel in the Global Align tab (see section
1.6.3
for a full description of this display’s features). They do, however, have the following differences:
•
In the Consensus Align tab, only data from the individual reads of the consensus selected for display in this tab are shown. Therefore, the reads are never grouped into consensi as is possible in the Global Align tab, and there are no ‘Read Type’ display options.
•
The consensus sequence of the aligned reads is shown just below the Reference Sequence, at the top of the panel. Matching positions are displayed as dots “.”, whereas the consensus nucleotides are shown explicitly for positions that differ from the Reference Sequence.
