From: Optical mapping of the Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis genome
A high-resolution optical map of M. ap ATCC 19698. Genomic DNA of M. ap ATCC 19698 was mounted on derivatized glass using a microfluidic device and digested with Bsi WI. Fragment images were collected and processed by an automatic data acquisition system. A total of 970 optical contigs were assembled into one circular consensus map, giving an approximately 82-fold genome coverage. Optical contigs are represented by arcs of various lengths. Each arc is intersected by radiating lines that represent Bsi WI cutting sites, and arbitrary colors represent homologous overlapping fragments.
