Visualising and analysing variants
The Ensembl variation schema is used to capture information from population-wide surveys of sequence variants.
This data is currently available for 22 metazoa, 8 fungi, 2 protist and 28 plant genomes. It can be downloaded or visualised in the genome browser (Figure 3).
The Ensembl Variant Effect Predictor (VEP) allows to predict the effect of variants on genes and their products. It is available for all species in Ensembl Genomes.
