    Creating Circular genome map

    Could any one suggest me how to create a circular genome map with read coverage track. Thanks in advance.

        Circos is probably the most commonly used one.

        Others include

        CGview (http://wishart.biology.ualberta.ca/cgview/)
        DNAPlotter (http://bioinformatics.oxfordjournals.../25/1/119.full)
        GenomeViz (http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2105/5/198)

          You can also use GenomeDiagram in Biopython to draw a circular genome with a coverage depth plot round it - but this is a programmatic interface.

            BRIG looks quite nice, haven't used it yet though

            Download BLAST Ring Image Generator for free. BRIG is a cross-platform (Windows/Mac/Unix) application that can display circular comparisons between a large number of genomes, with a focus on handling genome assembly data. Please cite the BRIG paper if BRIG is used to generate figures for publications: NF Alikhan, NK Petty, NL Ben Zakour, SA Beatson (2011) BLAST Ring Image Generator (BRIG): simple prokaryote genome comparisons, BMC Genomics, 12:402.

              Thank you for this. We're using CLC Bio for routine analysis (which is really nice) but it doesn't support circular genome maps at the moment.

              So far BRIG has done what I need. CIRCOS looks gorgeous, after 2 hours installing and configuring all the perl libraries needed to support it, I caved and gave up. Maybe I try again in a week or so.

                circos

                I have to plot a seq uencing data in circle and wonder what tool wil be used. I found Circos but is not window based and intutive for a biologist. Is there a version of CIRCOS which can be easily used or any alternative tool. It is a human genome based data.

                Thanks

                  Regarding DNAplotter

                  Hello everyone

                  I have done re-sequencing of one of Vibrio cholerae strain and has data in form of consensus sequence for both the chromosomes. Now I want to make these consensus circular and compare them with the reference . Is it possible to do that with DNAplotter? I mean I want that outer circle should be my reference sequence and the inner circle should me my consensus sequence.

                  I am trying to use DNAplotter but not getting much. please pardon me if I am missing something very obvious.

                  Regards,
                  Neha

                    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
                    by SEQadmin2


                    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.


                    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

                    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
                    by SEQadmin2


                    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


                    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
