Hi all,
I have to find the gene order (synteny) among two organism. The problem is I don't have draft genomes for any. For one organism I have ~17K scaffolds length ranging from (3MB to 500bp) and for another have ~18 super scaffolds (NCBI generated. each size > 13MB bp). I did the blast and tried to visualize in artemis-ACT tool. But it was very clumsy. Thought of circos plot, but I am not sure about it. How do I find the synteny when there are huge number of sequences and are there any better tools for visualization.

You can try SyMap to construct synteny blocks. But it takes only 2500 sequences at max per query. So you may somehow reduce the number of scaffolds (concatenate them ) and load in to SyMap. It uses nucmer and promer internally to search for similar blocks.

Thanks for the replies. I will try both SyMap and Mauve.
