Hi Jo,

I don't have enough knowledge of viral genomics to fully understand
your question, but I think I get the gist of it.

GBrowse can display anything from high quality reference genomes to
unmapped EST collections.  What changes between the two is how you
search for the data.  If you have 20 well defined chromosomes, you can
have a pull-down listing all chromosomes.  If you have 10,000 ESTs a
pull down won't work and you have to access the data via name
searching, BLAST, or from external links (e.g., an EST page).

I'm guessing that viral sequences are more like the EST case then the
reference case.

Hope this helps,

Dave C
