Visualization of the fox read alignment to a region of the dog chromosome 13 containing C-KIT gene with GoldenHelix GenomeBrowse 1.1.2. Alignment of Illumina reads from each of the six sequenced foxes showed an increase in the sequencing depth over a ~ 206 kb region. This region includes a part of intron 1 and exons 2–21 of the C-KIT gene [48]. The depths of the read increase vary among the six foxes suggesting that sequenced individuals carry different numbers of B chromosomes in their genomes.
