This track displays simple tandem repeats (possibly imperfect repeats) on the 27 Mar 2019 Denticeps clupeoides/GCA_900700345.2_fDenClu1.1_alternate_haplotype/GCA_900700345.2 genome assembly, located by Tandem Repeats Finder (TRF) which is specialized for this purpose. These repeats can occur within coding regions of genes and may be quite polymorphic. Repeat expansions are sometimes associated with specific diseases.
There are 160,575 items in the track covering 12,949,218 bases, assembly size 457,704,509 bases, percent coverage % 2.83.For more information about the TRF program, see Benson (1999).
