EZmap Instructions
EZmap generates linear or circular graphical maps of mitochondrial genomes using GFF3 or BED annotation files. It highlights genomic features including:
- Protein-coding genes (CDS)
- tRNAs and rRNAs
- A+T rich / control regions
Both formats are accepted — EZmap auto-detects and converts BED to GFF3 internally. Forward strand features are colored using different colors. The output is saved as PDF plots per genome.
- Annotation file (GFF3 or BED): EZmap accepts both formats and converts automatically.
- GFF3 — standard GFF3 with
##gff-version 3header (.gff, .gff3). Check here for GFF3 format. - BED — 6 fields:
chrom, chromStart, chromEnd, name, score, strand(.bed, .txt).
- GFF3 — standard GFF3 with
- Gene names should be short (e.g., cox1) for better visualization.
- If genome is incomplete, select linear mode; otherwise circularization is applied automatically.
- Upload your annotation file, choose options, and download the results.
