Figure 5From: Efficient error correction for next-generation sequencing of viral ampliconsHomopolymer indels distribution according to size. (for the notation convenience we consider single nucleotides as homopolymers of length 1, so homopolymer indel in the homopolymer of length 1 is the insertion creating a homopolymer of length 2). Average homopolymer statistics over all 14 samples. The blue bars (left y-axis) show the number of homopolymer indels per read. The red line (left y-axis) shows the fraction of expected homopolymers of that size that contain errors. The green line (right y-axis) shows the percentage of homopolymers of that size that can be found in the real sequence.Back to article page
