Abstract:Like many other species, the duck genome has been sequenced thanks to the technological breakthrough provided by the emergence of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). The resulting de novo assemblies are however made of thousands of scattered scaffolds. To achieve chromosome-scale contiguity, long-range intermediate genome maps remain indispensable. Radiation Hybrid (RH) maps have been used to assist the generation of chromosome-scale genome assemblies by taking advantage of the high density SNP chips that provid… Show more
