This invention relates to a system and methods for the straightening an electrophoresis gel image in the vertical and horizontal directions, and for analyzing a straightened gel image. The system includes an input unit for receiving raw data from the electrophoresis gel, a straightening unit for providing a straightened gel image, an output unit for portraying the raw data from the electrophoresis gel and the straightened gel image, and a an analyzing unit for analyzing the data portrayed in the straightened gel image. The system features a dye boost feature for boosting the intensity of bands, filtering means for modifying the gel image, and a genotype editing feature for editing the results of an automatic gel analysis. The system allows for manual and automatic analysis of the straightened gel image according to a specified set of analysis parameters providing a range of analysis stringency levels.
