Description

This track depicts gaps in the draft assembly (Nov. 2009, SGSC Sscrofa9.2 (NCBI project 10718, GCA_000003025.2)) of the pig genome. The pig genome assembly is a hybrid of BAC end-sequencing to anchor contigs combined with whole-genome shotgun (WGS) libraries. See also: Porcine Genome Sequencing Project description.

In dense mode, this track depicts the contigs that make up the currently viewed chromosome. Contig boundaries are distinguished by the use of alternating gold and brown coloration. Where gaps exist between contigs, spaces are shown between the gold and brown blocks. When the relative order and orientation of the contigs within a chromosome are known a line is drawn in the graphical display to bridge the blocks.

Components in this track are of types:

• "A": Active finishing
• "D": Draft sequence
• "F": Finished sequence
