List of filtering rules used for identification of sex-linked contigs; filtering rules for identification of Y-linked genes

Minimal and maximal number of reads. Each male must have at least 15 reads mapped, each female can have at most 3 reads mapped.
Fraction of female and male reads. female reads/(female reads + male reads) < 0.03.
Male reads must be more abundant than female reads. mother reads < father reads;
mother reads < son reads;
daughter reads < father reads;
daughter reads < son reads
