Large deletion detection and distribution. a) Illustration of large deletion detection and impact on protein-coding exons. b) Gbrowse visualization of a deleted gene, F42A6.5 and its experimental validation through PCR amplification. c) (Left) Distribution of large deletions reveals peaks associated with transposable elements. Two peaks around lengths 1,244 and 2,337 bps are explained by Cemar1 and Tc3 transposable elements, respectively. c) (Right) Frequency of different types of transposable elements found deleted in the Hawaiian genome compared to reference. Name is provided as annotated in RepBase, with the length of the transposable elements shown in parenthesis.
