BioCicle: A Tool for Summarizing and Comparing Taxonomic Profiles out of Biological Sequence Alignments

The BioCicle tool interface showing a phylogenetic tree with highlighted branches (panel a), a color-coded treemap of taxonomic data for SP:WAP_RAT (panel c), and a system architecture diagram connecting to NCBI/EBI comparison framework and UniProt sequence databases (panels d and e).

Abstract
BioCicle is a visualization tool for summarizing and comparing taxonomic profiles derived from biological sequence alignments. The tool enables biologists to visually explore and compare the composition of microbial communities across multiple samples.
