Figure 1From: An update of the goat genome assembly using dense radiation hybrid maps allows detailed analysis of evolutionary rearrangements in BovidaeImax for SNP marker genotyping. We called genotypes of clones at SNPs based on the raw signal intensities obtained from Illumina genotyping system. A number (Nneg) of SNPs showed very low intensities for both alleles in the goat (panel A). Specifically, the statistic used for genotype calling of a given SNP in a given clone was the maximum observed intensity over the two possible alleles (herein called Imax). The distribution of Imax in a given clone can be seen as a mixture of two underlying distributions, where one for the non-retained SNPs in the clone and one for the retained SNPs (e.g. panel B).Back to article page
