| abstract |
The present invention relates to a method for partitioning a reference genome, or part thereof, into a plurality of portions comprising generating a guanine and cytosine (GC) profile for a reference genome, or part thereof; applying a segmenting process to the GC profile generated in (a), thereby providing discrete segments; and partitioning the reference genome, or part thereof, into a plurality of portions according to the discrete segments provided in (b), thereby generating a GC partitioned reference genome, or part thereof. |
