Abstrakt: Of the plethora of bioinformatical tools available, some useful tools that allow complete genome sequences to be compared are described here. Comparisons of genome length, base composition, gene density, numbers of tRNA and rRNA genes, and codon usage can provide useful biological insights. Examples are provided of a Genome Atlas plot, to summarize many features of a single genome, and a BLAST Atlas, in which multiple genomes can be combined. A table of web-services for useful tools is provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
