{"doi":"10.1093/bioadv/vbaf302","title":"tskit_arg_visualizer: interactive plotting of ancestral recombination graphs","abstract":"Motivation: Ancestral recombination graphs (ARGs) are a complete representation of the genetic relationships between recombining lineages and are of central importance in population genetics. Recent breakthroughs in simulation and inference methods have led to a surge of interest in ARGs. However, understanding how best to take advantage of the graphical structure of ARGs remains an open question for researchers. Here, we introduce tskit_arg_visualizer, a Python package for programmatically drawing ARGs using the interactive D3.js visualization library. Results: We highlight the usefulness of this visualization tool for both teaching ARG concepts and exploring ARGs inferred from empirical datasets. Availability and implementation: The latest stable version of tskit_arg_visualizer is available through the Python Package Index (https://pypi.org/project/tskit-arg-visualizer, currently v0.1.1). Documentation and the development version of the package are found on GitHub (https://github.com/kitchensjn/tskit_arg_visualizer).","journal":"Bioinformatics Advances","year":2024,"id":508616,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":0,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9536,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2024-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":615902,"name":"Yan Wong","orcid":"0000-0002-3536-6411","position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":1360418,"name":"James Kitchens","orcid":"0000-0003-4084-1288","position":0,"is_corresponding":true}],"reference_count":22,"raw_metadata":null,"created_at":"2026-07-19T02:11:10.049781Z","pmid":"41394082","pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
