Visualizing Orthologs and Paralogs genes

Hi I ran PorthoMCL and I would like to visualise the results may be as a circos plot. PorthoMCL contains two output files:

To create the above outputs they used 12 genes as input.

What would be the best way to visualise the Orthologs and Paralogs genes?

Thank you in advance,

A very interesting question! By definition, orthologs and paralogs are defined by comparing evolutionary relationships among genes to evolutionary relationships among species. Genes strictly follow species trees are orthologs. I would think a good visualization of orhologs and paralogs may involve phylogenetic trees and some diagrammatic representations of gene relationships. The rest would require some imagination and creativity.
