[Genome] Gap information

[Brooke Rhead]

Hello Christian,

You can use the Table Browser to retrieve information from the Gap 
track.  To do so, click on the "Tables" link in the blue bar at the top 
of our web page.  Select the clade, genome, and assembly of interest. 
Then choose:

group: mapping and sequencing tracks
track: gap
table: gap
region: position (here enter the position of the gene of interest, or 
enter the gene name and hit the "lookup" button)
output format: all fields in selected table

Hit "get output".  You should get a list of items in the Gap track at 
that position.  To get more information about the fields in the track, 
click on the "describe table schema" button in the Table Browser.

I hope this information is helpful.  If you have further questions, 
please do not hesitate to write back to this list.
