From: Resequencing and assembly of seven complex loci to improve the Leishmania major (Friedlin strain) reference genome

Fig. 5

The gene LmjF.19.0305, absent in the current L. major Friedlin genome assembly, is flanked by a repeated element. a Comparison of the LmjF.19.0300-LmjF.19.0310 genomic region and its equivalent genomic loci in different Leishmania species (LmjF: L. major strain Friedlin; LinJ: L. infantum; LbrM: L. braziliensis; Lv: L. major strain LV39). The location of the de novo assembled contigs Cg12153 and Cg12159 regarding the L. major LV39 genomic region (contig KB217919; TriTrypDB database) are shown. The positions of the 1-kb repeated element are denoted by green boxes and the conserved areas in green shadow. b Distribution of RNA-Seq coverage reads and transcript definition after alignment with the currently annotated genomic region containing the genes LmjF.19.0300 and LmjF.19.0310. c Distribution of RNA-Seq coverage reads and transcript mapping on the corrected genomic region.
