The R package rearrvisr provides functions to identify and visualize inter- and intrachromosomal translocations and inversions between a focal genome and an ancestral genome reconstruction, or two extant genomes. Rearrangements, breakpoints, and synteny blocks are identified along the focal genome and output in a tabular format. Rearrangements and synteny blocks can be visualized along the focal genome by two graphical functions.
