Comparison of the 30 original mitogenomes with the contigs assembled from the Ion Torrent simulations.

<p>Upper part represents contigs resulting from reads with 150 pb mean length, lower part contigs assembled from reads of 300 bp mean length. Orange lines indicate the limits of the mitogenomes; these are ordered from the one with least coverage (10×, on the left) to the most covered mitogenome (58×, on the right). Coverage of the mitogenomes are by steps of an increment of 2× (scale indicates the coverage). The same dataset was used to generate the 150 and the 300 bp reads. Contig colors have no meaning beyond ease of visualization. Generated using outputs of the genome alignement program MAUVE <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0051263#pone.0051263-Darling1" target="_blank">[28]</a>.
