Fig. 3From: AluMine: alignment-free method for the discovery of polymorphic Alu element insertionsa The number of discovered REF– Alu elements in individual NA12877 depending on the depth of coverage. Various depth coverage levels were generated by randomly selecting a subset of reads from the FASTQ file. b The frequency of false-negative Alu elements found in simulations. FN1 denotes false negatives that could not be detected because they are inserted in nonunique regions of the genome. FN2 denotes false-negative findings that were undetectable because they are inserted within unsequenced regions of the genome (N-rich regions). Error bars indicate 95% confidence intervals from 20 replicatesBack to article page
