Estimating chromosome sizes from karyotype images enables validation of <i>de novo</i> assemblies
2022-05-24
Abstract excerpt
Highly contiguous genome assemblies are essential for genomic research. Chromosome-scale assembly is feasible with the modern sequencing techniques in principle, but in practice, scaffolding errors frequently occur, leading to incorrect number and sizes of chromosomes. Relating the observed chromosome sizes from karyotype images to the generated assembly scaffolds offers a method for detecting these errors. Here,...
