Description

This track shows regions detected as putative genomic duplications within the golden path. The following display conventions are used to distinguish levels of similarity:

Light to dark gray: 90 - 98% similarity
Light to dark yellow: 98 - 99% similarity
Light to dark orange: greater than 99% similarity
Red: duplications of greater than 98% similarity that lack sufficient Segmental Duplication Database evidence (most likely missed overlaps)

For a region to be included in the track, at least 500 bp of the total sequence (containing at least 100 bp of non-RepeatMasked sequence) had to align and a sequence identity of at least 90% was required.

Methods
