Wally
Wally is a tool for visualizing aligned sequencing reads and contigs. It supports the inspection of sequence alignments and assembly results, helping users assess read placement, contig structure, and alignment patterns. As part of the GEAR toolbox, Wally complements sequence analysis workflows by providing visual access to aligned genomic data.
Key benefits
Visualizes aligned sequencing reads and contigs
Supports inspection of sequence alignment results
Helps assess contig structure and read placement
Useful for quality control and interpretation of genome analysis outputs
Complements command-line and web-based GEAR workflows
Applications
Visualization of read alignments
Inspection of assembled contigs
Quality assessment of sequencing and assembly results
Exploration of local alignment patterns
Review of genome analysis outputs in research or teaching workflows
Intended use
Wally is intended for molecular biologists, genomics researchers, sequencing facilities, and bioinformaticians who need to inspect aligned reads or contigs. It is particularly suited for users who want a visual overview of sequencing results to support quality control, troubleshooting, and interpretation.
