## Description

This track shows the draft assembly of the $organism genome. Whole-genome shotgun reads were assembled into contigs. Where possible, contigs were grouped into scaffolds (also known as "supercontigs") with order, orientation and gap sizes between contigs based on paired-end read evidence. The assembly was produced by Agencourt Bioscience (now a part of Beckman Coulter Genomics) using the Arachne assembler. Where the assembly indicated a negative gap size, a gap size of 25 base pairs was substituted in by Michael Eisen at Berkeley.

In dense mode, this track depicts the contigs that make up the currently viewed scaffold. Contig boundaries are distinguished by the use of alternating gold and brown coloration. Where gaps exist between contigs, spaces are shown between the gold and brown blocks. The relative order and orientation of the contigs is always known for contigs within a scaffold, so a line is drawn to bridge the blocks.

All components within this track are of fragment type "W": Whole Genome Shotgun contig.
