Figure 2From: Assessing the benefits of using mate-pairs to resolve repeats in de novo short-read prokaryotic assembliesC-statistic across 391 bacterial genomes. The percentage of short-read (35, 50, and 100-mer) graphs with C-Statistic in a particular range. Here we see that in about 60% of the graphs created from short-reads, 60-90% of the finishing complexity is contained in repeats that are difficult to resolve using mate-pair information.Back to article page
