Circos Plot for synteny relationship

Question

[tothepoint]

I have a denovo assembled fasta file and reference genome fasta of the same. How can I make circos plot to understand the synteny. I tried circos tutorial and they work well on their karyotype file and I am struggling in making the karyotype file. Any lead in this regards will be highly appreciated.

Thanks Devender

you can try SyMAP (less complicated than circos) which is used for the similar purpose - It can align a draft genome to a fully sequenced genome. For more details check: http://www.agcol.arizona.edu/software/symap/

I tried symap but it come-up with error again and again. No result in the end. Now I am giving a try to mysyntenyportal. Is there any other user friendly tool?
