Table 1. Results of Arabidopsis thaliana Sanger sequencing.
Position in bubbleparse list | SNPs sequenced | Confirmed SNPs | Unconfirmed SNPs | Problems with sequencing | Number in curated list |
Top | 48 | 46 | 0 | 2 | 39 |
25% | 16 | 15 | 0 | 1 | 13 |
50% | 16 | 15 | 0 | 1 | 10 |
75% | 16 | 15 | 0 | 1 | 11 |
From the ranked list of all SNPs predicted by Bubbleparse in contigs of over 200 nt, the top 48, as well as 16 from 25%, 50% and 75% down the list were tested with Sanger sequencing. This confirmed all but 5 as being real SNPs between Col-0 and Ler-1. The remaining five all had sequencing problems – such as the sequence ending before the SNP was reached – so are not confirmed as false postives.
