Navigation and Use of Custom Tracks within the Axolotl Genome Browser

The availability of the chromosome-scale axolotl genome sequences has made it possible to explore genome evolution, perform cross-species comparisons, and use additional sequencing data to analyze both genome-wide features and individual genes. Here, we will focus on the UCSC genome browser and demonstrate in a step-by-step manner how to use it to integrate different data to approach a broad question of the Fgf8 locus evolution and analyze the neighborhood of a gene that was reported missing in axolotl - Pax3.
