#This is the walkstrough how to identifiy genome-wide synteny markers based on LASTZ alignment.
Step1:Mask the repeat sequences for both genomes and chromosomes.
RepeatMasker -pa 40 -nolow -norna -gff -xmall -lib custom.TE.lib_for_rice.fa AAChr1.txt RepeatMasker -pa 40 -nolow -norna -gff -xmall -lib custom.TE.lib_for_FF.fa FFChr1.txt
Step2: Alignment using LASTZ and Chain/Net

Step 3: Get syntenic markers
perl Maf2rawsynteny.pl chr1.chain.filter.tnet.synnet.axt.maf target.AAChr1 query.FFChr1
perl Get_synteny.pl -i chr1.chain.filter.tnet.synnet.axt.maf -n 0 -m 3 -t target.AAChr1 -q query.FFChr1 -o syn.final.out
