(a,b) A sample graphical output generated by PrimerMapper for DNA based sequences in fastA format is shown. The primers designed to each sequence (in this case, two sequences), is converted to a graphical output with each primer represented by a blue glyph arrowed in the direction of synthesis. Each primer is named by its starting position and the fastA header from each sequence is at the top of the scaled graphic. The number line represents a scaled version of the input sequence in base pairs. (c) PrimerMapper also generates a concatenated graphic that assembles each sequence (adopting the order followed in the inputted file) and its designed primers into a single view so as to quickly and easily validate the distribution of primers across all sequences.
