Figure 1: Improvement of the L. sativa cv. Salinas genome assembly after scaffolding with HiRise.
From: Genome assembly with in vitro proximity ligation data and whole-genome triplication in lettuce
(a) Higher contiguity of the genome assembly by scaffold using HiRise as a function of an increase in the sequence size and proportion of large sequences. (b) Genotype calls for RILs with crossovers across the longest HiRise superscaffold. Red bars represent L. sativa alleles, blue bars represent L. serriola alleles and the yellow bars represent heterozygotes. Alternating discontinuities in the black line of top of the genotype represent joins between SOAPdenovo scaffolds. (c) Ordering, orientation and incorporation of additional scaffolds spanning the Major Resistance Cluster 2 (ref. 31) in the two HiRise assemblies. Expanded view shows a single super scaffold that organized four genetic bins into a single unit.
