Note: Although IGV can generate read depth plot from the BAM file given, it cannot recognize "ZW" tag RSEM puts. Therefore IGV counts each alignment as weight 1 instead of the expected weight for the plot it generates. So we recommend to use the wiggle file generated by RSEM for read depth visualization. +Here are some guidance for visualizing transcript coordinate files: + +1) Import the transcript sequences as a genome + +Select File -> Import Genome, then fill in ID, Name and Fasta file. Fasta file should be 'reference_name.transcripts.fa'. After that, click Save button. Suppose ID is filled as 'reference_name', a file called 'reference_name.genome' will be generated.
