This track represents coverage of clones that were assayed for segmental duplications using high-depth Celera reads. Absent regions were not assessed by this version of the Segmental Duplication Database (SDD). For a description of the whole-genome shotgun sequence detection (WSSD) "fuguization" method, see Bailey, J.A. et al. (2001) in the References section below.
The data were provided by Xinwei She and Evan Eichler as part of their effort to map human paralogy at the University of Washington.
