Description
The GC sample track shows the percentage of bases that are G or C in small regions across the genome.
Windows with high GC content are plotted at higher vertical positions
than windows with low GC content. High GC content is associated with gene rich areas.
Methods
For each 1,000 base disjoint window the percentage of G or C bases was calculated and plotted
as two points at the start and end of the window. By default, the windows
are not connected with horizontal lines, but this can be changed with the user options. Enter "-1"
as the "Maximum Interval to Interpolate Across", to always connect adjacent samples.
