You can do this easily with the DrawCircle() function in package DescTools. It 
is easiest to use geometric coordinates (0 is at 3 o'clock and moves 
counterclockwise around the circle), but it could be converted to 12 o'clock 
and clockwise:

library(DescTools)

# Convert begin/stop to radians
dat$begin <- 0 + 2 * pi * dat$start/1500
dat$stop <- 0 + 2 * pi * dat$end/1500

# Open blank plot window and draw circles
Canvas(xlim = c(-5,5), xpd=TRUE)
DrawCircle (r.out = 5, r.in = 5, theta.1=.05, theta.2=2*pi-.05, lwd=3)
with(dat, DrawCircle(r.out = 5 - score/5, r.in = 5 - score/5, 
     theta.1=begin, theta.2=stop, border=col, lwd=4))
text(5.2, .4, "1", pos=4)
text(5.2, -.4, "1500", pos=4)

Subject: [R] Circular plot

I want to plot segments deleted from mitochondrial DNA of patients with
neuromuscular disorders. I generate the plot on a linear chromosome using a
code similar to as shown below

start<-c(1,5,600,820)
end<-c(250,75,810,1200)
score<-c(7,-1,4,-6.5)
dat<-data.frame(start=start,end=end,score=score,col="blue",stringsAsFactors=F)
dat[dat$score<0,]$col<-"red"

plot(1:1500,rep(0,1500),type="p",ylim=c(-10,10),col="white",xlab="position",ylab="score")
segments(dat$start, dat$score, dat$end, dat$score, col=dat$col, lwd=3)


Since the human mitochondria is a circular genome, I would like to
visualise the plot generated above as a circle where all segments with
positive score lie inside the circle and those with negative score lie
outside. Attached is a representation of my requirement, although here it
is manually drawn. Can someone help me on this?
