MetaTreeMap: An Alternative Visualization Method for Displaying Metagenomic Phylogenic Trees

Metagenomic samples can contain hundreds or thousands of different species. The most common method to identify these species is to sequence the samples and then classify the reads to nodes along a phylogenic tree. Linear representations of trees with so many nodes face legibility issues. In addition, such views are not optimal for appreciating the read quantity assigned to each node. The proble...

Extended Visualization Method for Classification Trees

Classification tree analysis is one of the main techniques used in Data Mining, and nowadays there is a lack of a visualization method that support this tool. Therefore, graphical procedures can be developed in order to help simplify interpretation and to obtain a better understanding. This paper proposes a method for representing the input data for each class presented in each terminal node. F...

Somatic Embryogenesis: An Alternative Method for in vitro Micropropagation

Plant tissue culture is an alternative method of commercial propagation and is being used widely for the commercial propagation of a large number of plant species, including many medicinal plants. Somatic embryogenesis is a process by which asexual or somatic cells are induced to form embryos in culture. Somatic embryogenesis is a multi-step regeneration process starting with formation of pro-e...
