[Genome] track for duplication loci

[Robert Kuhn]

Dr. Wistow,

We do have a track of data from Eichler's lab, Segmental Dups,
last updated 2006-07-14.  We will look into whether the data
in the papers you cite are available for inclusion in the
Browser.  

Thank you for bringing these data to our attention.

best wishes,
