## Description

This track shows the whole genome shotgun (WGS) contigs of the October 2005 Version 1.0 $organism assembly.

The genome has been sequenced to 10.6X coverage. It consists of approximately 690.7 Mb, including gaps, on 24 chromosomes, chr1 - chr24. There are 7,164 ultracontigs and scaffolds comprised of 36,494 contigs of unplaced sequence of 118,243,491 bp. Not all scaffolds are necessarily assembled into ultracontigs, and not all ultracontigs are necessarily assembled into chromosomes.

The medaka mitochondrial sequence is also available as the virtual chromosome "chrM". (genbank accession: GI:25057156, NC_004387)
