valid cytoband file example

[Darek Kedra]

Hello,

I have a non-model organism genome without downloadable cytoband map. Still, I would like to create a fake cytomap whih woul be then displayed on the top. Problem is, there is no example cytoband file, and just putting few lines according to:

http://www.broadinstitute.org/igv/Cytoband

does not give my any results. Can you kindly point me to something which will be displayed for just one, say 200kb chromosome?

Many thanks for your help.

Here is an example:  http://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg38/database/cytoBand.txt.gz.    However,  why do you need it?    Its not required for IGV.

Dear Jim,

thank you for such prompt answer. I was teaching the course, and wanted to have toy genome with toy cytobands. In the end I did not managed to show them (cytobands) but still want to have it sorted out. Be it for another course in the future or just to have an ideogram depicting organization of the genes along the chromosome. These are clustered in operon-like units.

Best,
