Description

This track depicts gaps in the draft assembly (Oct. 2010, Ngan10.1) of the $organism genome. *** Developer: remove this statement if no future assemblies are expected: Many of these gaps — with the exception of intractable heterochromatic gaps — may be closed during the finishing process.

Gaps are represented as black boxes in this track. If the relative order and orientation of the contigs on either side of the gap is known, it is a bridged gap and a white line is drawn through the black box representing the gap.

This assembly was sequenced with paired reads taken from *** Developer: check if this is accurate: plasmids and fosmids of various sizes. Overlapping reads were merged into contigs, and pairing information was then used to join the contigs into scaffolds. The gap sizes are estimated from the size of the plasmids and fosmids, with a minimum gap size of 25.

This assembly contains the following types of gaps:

Contig - gaps of size 25 to 25.
Scaffold - gaps greater than 25 in size.
