Working example for VCF visualization in Circos

I would like to plot the SNP density of a genome plotted as histogram using Circos (http://circos.ca/), the inputs are a SNP variant calling VCF file and reference genome Genbank fasta file or Gbk file, I try to look for an example parameter for this plotting, but could not find exact solution. Would you please share with me if you have a working sample? Thank you!

snp next-gen

hi genebow any more thoughts? did you manage to use circos for snp?

I close this problem as I see the solution from Circos tutorial. The VCF file needs to be parsed as histogram file and the Circos uses this file for plotting.

The turorial is at here

Cheers!

Thanks for sharing the solution, but there is no need to close the thread.
