Mate pairs which are generated from a region with tandem duplications, are mapped to reference. Abnormalities in the insertion size and direction of a mate pair depend on whether it is generated from a location around a tandem duplication breakpoint or not. a A mate pair spanning the tandem duplication in the sample genome is shown. After mapping to the reference genome, this mate pair encounters a change in direction and abnormality in the insertion size (the distance of point a to b). b Two mate pairs that are not located around breakpoint are shown. These pairs will map normally to the reference genome, without any change in the insertion size or direction
