Description

This track displays alignments of $o_organism to $organism using the Wobble Aware Bulk Aligner (WABA), an alignment tool developed by Jim Kent for doing large-scale alignments between genomic DNA of different species.

The symbols shown below the base alignments on the details page indicate the hidden Markov model states for those bases:

Methods

The WABA alignment algorithm is described in Kent, W.J. and Zahler, A.M. Conservation, regulation, synteny, and introns in a large-scale C. briggsae-C. elegans genomic alignment. Genome Res 10(8), 1115-1125 (2000).

Credits

WABA was developed by Jim Kent and Alan M. Zahler.

$o_Organism version cb25.agp8 (11 July 2002) and $organism version WS100 (02 May 2003) were used in creating this annotation. Thanks to WormBase and Lincoln Stein.
