| Research Abstract |
Genome sequencing using so-called next-generation DNA sequencers often results in rather fragmented sequences, and the positions of the fragmented sequences on chromosomes are usually unknown. We developed a system/algorithm that constructs a genetic map in a short time with less labor using next-generation DNA sequencers. Genetic maps generated by our algorithm can arrange fragmented sequences on chromosomes.
