All,
We're doing some genome assembly work in plants where ploidy and chromosome counts seem to change from one corner of a field to another. We have some expected c-values from the lit (eg Lysak et al, Johnson etc), but whether these still are useful for our plants we're not entirely sure.
Can anyone point to a technique for estimating C-values from variables such as the total k-mer count, expected read error rate and k-mer depth distributions? It seems like something such as this might be possible...?
Thanks for any ideas.
