Related reference based contig arrangement tool. The program r2cat has two main objectives:
1.Match a set of contigs to a related reference genome to order and orient the contigs based on that reference. The mapping is visualized in an interactive synteny plot.
2.Create and visualize a synteny plot of two genomes.

Please Note: The matching works well for prokaryotic genomes. Huge eukaryotic genomes will cause quite likely memory problems.
