1 Overview

igv.org currently (July 2022) provides 35 common and model organism annotated genomes. Each of these is easily specified and used in igvR

When igvR is initialized communication is established between your R session and your default web browser. Then, in a separate function call, you specifies the genome of interest. igvR then renders the genome browser view and interactive navigation can begin.
