Figure 7. Genomic GC isochore structure among amniote vertebrates, and in draft genomes.

Figure 7

(A) GC isochore structure plot of 1x guided assemblies for both bird species, their reference genomes, and other select amniote vertebrate genomes using a 3 kb window size. (B) GC isochore structure plot comparison of 1x the Clark's Nutcracker guided assembly and the reference the Chicken genome. All contigs at both a 3,000 and a 5,000 bp window were used for the Clark's Nutcracker (n = 73,158 and n = 30,090 contigs respectively). All contigs (referred to as “all” in figure) or a random selection equal to the number of contigs in the Clark's Nutcracker assembly (“limited”) for both the 3,000 and 5,000 bp window were used in the comparison.
