Fig. 1From: Fast all versus all genotype comparison using DNA/RNA sequencing data: method and workflowOverview of bitwise comparison algorithm. \0 indicates a value of zero, which in ASCII is the NULL character. Steps 1–3 describe the bitwise operation used between the two genotype strings, and result values of 0 (NULL character) are counted. A period (.) is used to represent a non-zero value, which is not countedBack to article page
