From: Diminishing return for increased Mappability with longer sequencing reads: implications of the k-mer distributions in the human genome

Figure 1

Proportion of non-singleton k -mers/tokens in the human genome (24 chromosomes) as a function of k (in log-log scale). Circles (o) show the results for all finished basepairs, whereas crosses (x) for the result from RepeatMasker-filtered sequences. Pluses (+) are results when unfinished sequences (234 Mbase) are included as non-singletons.
