Sex differences in genome coverage and heterozygosity values (1 Mb windows) for the mantled howler monkeys, plotted along chromosome positions in the human genome. The four rows show: (A) heterozygosity, and genome coverage with (B) strict filtering (0 mismatches allowed), (C) intermediate filtering (≤ 2 mismatches) and (D) no filtering of mapped reads (“unfiltered”). The grey background marks the 95% confidence intervals (CI), and data points outside these values are red (if they are higher) or blue (if they are lower). All outlier values are reported as separate data tables in the pipeline output. The data reveals that chromosome X and a part of chromosome 3 are sex-linked in this species. The same data is also plotted for each sex separately (see Supplementary Fig. 2, Additional File 1). The silhouette was downloaded from phylopic.org
