Chapter 27 Vector Viewer

BreedBase provides a vector viewer tool that can generate, save, or upload vectors onto BreedBase.

The vector viewer tool comes with many interactive features:

• Highlighting

• Location display

• Zooming in / panning out

• A feature and restriction enzyme table that support real time editing, deleting, or adding

To highlight a region of the vector viewer, click and drag your cursor clockwise. To delete the new highlight, either start a new highlighted segment by clicking on the vector, or click the “Update/Reset” button.

To find the location of a spot on the vector, hover your cursor over the vector and a number will appear. That is the location, in base pairs, of your cursor.

To zoom in and pan out, click the “+” or the “-” button underneath the vector.

To add a feature or restriction site, click “Add”. To edit a feature or restriction site, select the feature or restriction site of choice, click “Edit”, and make any wanted changes. To delete a feature or restriction site, selected the feature or restriction site that you want to delete and then click “Delete”.
