Genome Sequencing and <i>de novo</i> Assembly Statistics.

aGenome was finished and closed to a single contig. Depth of coverage and Q40+ metrics are for de novo assembly of 454 data only. b454Draft sequences appear smaller than 1942 due to collapse of repeat regions. cThe average read length of this sample was considerably lower (239 versus >300) for other genomes in this dataset, resulting in larger number of contigs and decreased assembly quality. dDeletionof 23 kb with clear join points (positions 4,022,138–4,045,817) verified by optical mapping (Figure 4B). eDeletion of 73 kb with clear join points (positions 3,992,613 to 4,065,341) verified by optical mapping (Figure 4B).
