Abstract
SUMMARY: A-liner is a flexible command-line tool for linear visualization of genome-scale sequence alignments, supporting outputs from multiple aligners and integrated visualization of annotations, highlights, quantitative tracks, and coordinate scales. It is applicable to a wide range of organisms, from bacteria to large eukaryotic genomes, and facilitates efficient generation of publication-ready comparative genome visualizations. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The source code and example output files for a-liner are available in the GitHub repository: https://github.com/mokuno3430/a-liner. A-liner v1.1.0 has been archived on Zenodo at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.19702001. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
