The Sep. 2009 Notamacropus eugenii (Tammar Wallaby) draft assembly (NCBI project 12587 GCA_000004035.1) was produced by the Tammar Wallaby Genome Sequencing Consortium, a collaboration between the Baylor College of Medicine Human Genome Sequencing Consortium and the Australian Genome Research Facility. For more information about this assembly, see Meug_1.1 in the NCBI Assembly database.

Sample position queries

A genome position can be specified by the accession number of a sequenced genomic region, an mRNA or EST, a chromosomal coordinate range, or keywords from the GenBank description of an mRNA. The following list shows examples of valid position queries for the Wallaby genome. See the User's Guide for more information.

Request:   Genome Browser Response:
 
GL048072   Displays all of scaffold GL192360
GL048072:1-400,000   Displays first 400,000 bases of scaffold GL048072
GL048072:30,000+2000 Displays a region of scaffold GL048072 that spans 2000 bases, starting with position 300000
 
EF602313; FJ238079
Displays region between genome landmarks, such as the mRNA markers EF602313 and FJ238079. This syntax may also be used for other range queries, such as between uniquely determined ESTs, STSs, refSeqs, etc.
DQ304114   Displays region of mRNA with GenBank accession number DQ304114
 
homeobox caudal   Lists mRNAs for caudal homeobox genes
zinc finger   Lists many zinc finger mRNAs
kruppel zinc finger   Lists only kruppel-like zinc fingers
Bellacosa   Lists mRNAs deposited by scientist named Bellacosa
Taguchi,T.   Lists mRNAs deposited by co-author T. Taguchi
 
Use this last format for author queries. Although GenBank requires the search format Taguchi T, internally it uses the format Taguchi,T..


Assembly details

The genome has been sequenced to 2x coverage using ABI 3730 technology. There are 277,711 scaffolds with a total size of 3,075,184,024 bases. The N50 size of the scaffolds is 1,537,592,012 bases with 24,533 scaffolds larger, and 253,178 scaffolds smaller. The mean scaffold size is 11,073 bases, the median scaffold size is 1,755 bases.
