Fig. 6From: Genome ARTIST: a robust, high-accuracy aligner tool for mapping transposon insertions and self-insertionsA comparison of Genome ARTIST and iMapper mapping performances. In the figure, there are graphically depicted the performances of the two mappers when small-scale mutations are simulated as deletions (Fig. 5a), insertions (Fig. 5b) or substitutions (Fig. 5c) in a set of 23 original query sequences obtained by insertions of P{lacW} in the genome of D. melanogaster. Genome ARTIST (in red) correctly maps 14/23, 15/23 and respectively 16/23 insertional events when the simulated mutations (deletions, insertions, and, respectively, substitutions) are placed in position 2 relative to TGN (the most critical one for mapping accuracy). iMapper (in blue) is unable to accurately map any of the respective simulated insertions. For the majority of the other simulations, Genome ARTIST is also superior to performances of iMapperBack to article page
