This track depicts masked sequence as determined by WindowMasker on the the 14 Aug 2020 Solanum tuberosum/GCA_014189475.1_ASM1418947v1/GCA_014189475.1 genome assembly. The WindowMasker tool is included in the NCBI C++ toolkit. The source code for the entire toolkit is available from the NCBI FTP site.
To create this track, WindowMasker was run with the following parameters:
windowmasker -mk_counts true -input GCA_014189475.1_ASM1418947v1.unmasked.fa -output wm_counts windowmasker -ustat wm_counts -sdust true -input GCA_014189475.1_ASM1418947v1.unmasked.fa -output windowmasker.intervals perl -wpe 'if (s/^>lcl\|(.*)\n$//) { $chr = $1; } \ if (/^(\d+) - (\d+)/) { \ $s=$1; $e=$2+1; s/(\d+) - (\d+)/$chr\t$s\t$e/; }' windowmasker.intervals > windowmasker.sdust.bedThe windowmasker.sdust.bed included masking for areas of the assembly that are gap. The file was 'cleaned' to remove those areas of masking in gaps, leaving only the sequence masking. The final result covers 339,472,124 bases in the assembly size 810,122,902 for a percent coverage of % 41.90.
