Inferring synteny between genome assemblies: a systematic evaluation

2017-06-14

Abstract excerpt

Identification of synteny between genomes of closely related species is an important aspect of comparative genomics. However, it is unknown to what extent draft assemblies lead to errors in such analysis. To investigate this, we fragmented genome assemblies of model nematodes to various extents and conducted synteny identification and downstream analysis. We first show that synteny between species can be underesti...
