Visualize mitochondrial genome

Question

[gubrins]

Hi all,

I have a simple question. I want to visualize the mitochondrial genome together with its genes, the typical image that you find when you look for mitochondrial genome at google: https://www.ecosia.org/images?q=mitochonrial%20genome

I already have the fasta file and the annotation done and I have seen that you can get that image with genenious if you have a Genbank file. So my question is, how do I get a Genbank file from a fasta and a GFF or BED file? Or is there any other easier tool to visualize what I want?

Thanks in advance!

To convert a GFF file to a GenBank flat file I use table2asn (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/table2asn/).

A popular tool for making mitochondrial genome maps is OGDRAW (https://chlorobox.mpimp-golm.mpg.de/OGDraw.html). Though, it also needs a GenBank flat file.
