Schematic of Microsatellite

Caption

Schematic representation of the repeats, flanking regions, and fragment length -- the basis of the three data sets in this study. The four shades of gray correspond to the four different nucleotides. The number of repeats is calculated as the difference between the fragment length (from genotyping) and the flanking region (from sequencing).
