   Abstract

Motivation: The Alvira tool is a general purpose multiple sequence alignment viewer with a special emphasis on the comparative analysis of viral genomes. This new tool has been devised specifically to address the problem of the simultaneous analysis of a large number of viral strains. The multiple alignment is embedded in a graph that can be explored at different levels of resolution.

Availability: The Alvira software is available at: http://bioinfo.genopole-toulouse.prd.fr/Alvira

Contact: fenault{at}toulouse.inra.fr

Supplementary information: A tutorial is available at Alvira's homepage.

Associate Editor: Chris Stoeckert

{dagger}The authors wish it to be known that, in their opinion, the first two authors should be regarded as joint First Authors.
