So, I have a de novo sequenced genome that has a section deleted when compared to a closely related species. Basically, around the deleted region, synteny is strongly preserved with orthologous genes lining up nicely, but then there is suddenly a region with three genes that is deleted when compared to the well-known and closely related species. This is of big biological relevance and I want to make a graphical representation of this to use in a publication.
I really like the look of Sybil, but installing this database-dependent program just seems to be an overkill for my fairly limited intended use. This picture shows pretty much what it is I want to do, although I will probably limit myself to two genomes: http://sybil.sourceforge.net/screens...in_cluster.png
Is there a easy-to-use tool I could use for this purpose? Note that I want the genes depicted in there, with orthology shown using connecting lines. ACT or Mauve are not options as I understand it as they do not include genes in their output.
Cheers,
Henrik
