Assembly strategy. A: Visualization of contig connections of the de novo assembled carrot mitochondrial genome from sequence set 4, using bb.454contignet, including single (A, B, C, D, E) and repeated contigs (R1-R4). Numbers within boxes indicate contig ID as assigned by gsAssembler. The black arrows indicate the order of connections to concatenate the contig sequences into one of the two possible master circles; green arrows indicate the order of connections to concatenate the contig sequences from the plastid genome. Numbers between arrows indicate number of reads common to both contig ends. Boxes with different colors identify the origin of different contigs: red = mitochondrial genome; violet = contigs common to plastid and mitochondrial genome; green = plastid genome; white = putative nuclear genome connections. B: Schematic representation of the order of single copy regions (A, B, C, D and E) and repeated regions (R1-R4) in two possible master circles, Mc1 and Mc2.
