## Description

This track shows the whole genome shotgun (WGS) contigs of the November 2003 $organism Zv3 assembly from The Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.

Following the assembly of sequence to WGS contigs, contigs were mapped to scaffolds (supercontigs). A fingerprinted contigs (FPC) map was produced by restriction enzyme digestion with HindIII. Clones were selected from this for high quality sequencing. To create the Zv3 assembly, the supercontigs were tied to this FPC map.

The Zv3 assembly is composed of 62,895 contigs, of which 3,326 are stitched contigs. The total stitched contig length is 1.083 gigabases. The assembly contains 58,339 supercontigs (scaffolds) having an N50 length of 433.7 kb. Of these, a total of 56,849 supercontigs are in the unordered chromosomes: 54,798 in chrFinished, 1842 in chrUn, and 209 in chrNA.
