Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The presence of mitochondrial sequences in the nuclear genome (Numts) confounds analyses of mitochondrial sequence variation, and is a potential source of false positives in disease studies. To improve the analysis of mitochondrial variation in canines, we completed a systematic assessment of Numt content across genome assemblies, canine populations and the carnivore lineage. RESULTS: Centering our...
