Chicken genome coverage by quail AFLP fragments.A. Number of reads aligned to each chicken chromosome, after Burrows-Wheeler Alignment algorithm (bwa bwasw analysis). For each chicken chromosome (X axis), chromosome length in base pairs (bp, Chicken May 2006 (WUGSC 2.1/galGal3) assembly) and number of mapped reads (count) is indicated (Y axis). B. Examples of chicken chromosome coverage by the quail reads for GGA01 (left) and GGA02 (right). X axis: position along the chromosome (physical length). Y axis: Number of reads aligned along the chromosome (counts, log scale).
