An analyzer that analyzes one or more pieces of data acquired by electrophoresis separation of a sample includes a memory, a display unit, and a processor. The memory stores the one or more pieces of data. The display unit displays, based on the one or more pieces of data, a gel image, an electropherogram, a first size guide corresponding to the gel image, and a second size guide corresponding to the electropherogram. When the first size guide is located at a first position corresponding to a specific value associated with a size in the gel image, the processor displays a second size guide at a second position corresponding to the specific value in the electropherogram.

The application discloses a method for analyzing epigenetic diversity based on a methylation-sensitive amplified polymorphism (MSAP) gene and a biological gene fingerprint table. The method comprises the following steps: obtaining an MSAP amplification electropherogram of a biological sample to be detected, and constructing a 01 matrix of the sample; converting the 01 matrix into an MSAP gene sequence by using a "CCGGN" replacement method; comparing the MSAP gene sequence with a reference genome, and annotating DNA methylation related gene information; based on the annotation result, constructing a gene fingerprint table based on the copy number of the methylation gene and the methylation / hemimethylation mode, and analyzing epigenetic diversity. The method can convert a traditional MSAP band fingerprint map into a gene fingerprint table with annotation function information without performing cloning and sequencing of MSAP differential fragments, can improve MSAP marker analysis to epigenome analysis, solves the problem that MSAP epigenes are difficult to clone, and improves the level of germplasm resource identification and molecular breeding.

Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying multiple species in mixed samples using Sanger sequencing. The systems and methods receive a chromatogram from an electropherogram device and generate a plurality of base positions along the chromatogram's time axis. Each base position is generated at either a peak or inflection point in the chromatogram, and multiple base positions are generated at each wide peak in the chromatogram. The systems and methods call a base at the base position. Once bases are called, the systems and methods generate a base calling array that stores called bases in a plurality of indexes. Each index in the plurality of indexes corresponds to a window along the time axis and called bases within the window are added to the corresponding index. Each window partially overlaps with another window, and called bases at base positions that overlap two windows are added to both indexes.
