IGB 10.2.0 released

[Nowlan Freese]

IGB 10.2.0 has been released for Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Some highlights include:

• You can now color-code individual sequence alignments using sequence barcode SAM tags CR, CB and UB. We developed this feature to help users to visualize cell, molecule or cluster affiliation for alignments. This is especially useful for sanity-checking and exploring the results from clustering single-cell genomics data.

• You can also filter by SAM format tags. This lets you remove non-relevant alignments from the view. This is useful when investigating alignment artifacts or redundancies. It also helps with understanding and investigating splicing pattern anamolies.
• We also expanded the number of reference genome assemblies can load. You can now load genomes from the UCSC GenArk project after installing the GenArk IGB App.

• We improved IGB's ability to read and display data from the VCF and GFF formats.
