Single individual structural variant detection uncovers widespread hemizygosity in molluscs.

Abstract excerpt

The advent of complete genomic sequencing has opened a window into genomic phenomena obscured by fragmented assemblies. A good example of these is the existence of hemizygous regions of autosomal chromosomes, which can result in marked differences in gene content between individuals within species. While these hemizygous regions, and presence/absence variation of genes that can result, are well known in plants,...
