English The comparison of genome structures across distinct species offers valuable insights into the species' phylogeny, genome organization, and gene associations. In this chapter, we review the family-free genome comparison tool FFGC which provides several methods for gene order analyses that do not require prior knowledge of evolutionary relationships between the genes across the studied genomes. Moreover, the tool features a complete workflow for genome comparison, requiring nothing but annotated genome sequences as input.
