The input data file must be position sorted and +compressed by bgzip which has a gzip like interface. After indexing, +tabix is able to quickly retrieve data lines overlapping regions +specified in the format "chr:beginPos-endPos". Fast data retrieval +also works over network if URI is given as a file name and in this +case the index file will be downloaded if it is not present locally. + +NOTE! +Tabix is now included in htslib. This is an older version of the +program, kept here for compatibility with Ugene. You can safely install +it along htslib. When you start Ugene, go to Settings > Preferences > +External Tools and manually select the legacy binary in /usr/bin/ |
