A natural encoding of genetic variation in a Burrows-Wheeler Transform to enable mapping and genome inference
2016-06-15
Abstract excerpt
We show how positional markers can be used to encode genetic variation within aBurrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT), and use this to construct a generalisation ofthe traditional “reference genome”, incorporating known variation within aspecies. Our goal is to support the inference of the closest mosaic of previouslyknown sequences to the genome(s) under analysis. Our scheme results in an increased alphabet size, and by...
