This track displays alignments of C. briggsae to C. elegans 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:
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).
WABA was developed by Jim Kent and Alan M. Zahler.
C. briggsae version cb25.agp8 (11 July 2002) and C. elegans version WS120 (01 March 2004) were used in creating this annotation. Thanks to WormBase and Lincoln Stein.
The data for the C. elegans browser display were collected by Hiram Clawson. Please contact him with questions or comments about this annotation.
