Performance of alignment programs examined on human chromosome 20 (chr20) vs. mouse chromosome 2 (chr2). The row of Blastz with the symbol "*" refers to the examination on split chromosomal sequences. The threshold Tcol was set to "-X2500". Spmam is evaluated as the ratio of the coverage with human chr20 - mouse chr2 to that with the human chr20 - whole-genome sequence of mouse.
