中科院生物物理所生物信息实验室推出的可视化的微生物基因组比较工具。它可以接受FASTA、GenBank或EMBL等多种输入数据格式，自动在后台调用BLAST包中的核酸序列比较软件进行比较操作，然后对结果进行分析和处理，过滤掉冗余的信息，最终将结果以动态的图形化方式显示出来。此软件特别适用于比较具有较近亲缘关系的物种或同一物种的不同株的基因组，可以很容易的发现出它们之间在基因组水平的变异，如插入、缺失或转置等等。源代码，130K。使用手册（英文版），400K。原始网站。
GenomeComp is a tool for summarizing, parsing and visualizing the genome wide sequence comparison results derived from voluminous BLAST textual output, so as to locate the 
rearrangements, insertions or deletions of genome segments between species or strains.
It can be easily used to compare, parsing and visualize large genomic sequences, especially closely related genomes such as inter-species or inter-strains. In addition, it can also show other sequence features like repeat sequence distributions in one whole-genome DNA sequence by comparing the genome to itself.
It is a stand-alone graphical user interface (GUI) program which runs on Linux, Unix, Mac OS X (tested on version 10.2.4 only) and Microsoft Windows platforms and is written in Perl/Tk.
