New avian and new fish mutliple alignments



Ensembl 57 includes the turkey genome, the third bird in Ensembl. We are now providing a 3-way avian multiple alignments (chicken, turkey and zebra finch) together with GERP constraint analysis. The image shows amniote and bird constrained elements on the chicken genome.

We have also added a new set of fish multiple alignments (stickleback, medaka, takifugu, tetraodon and zebrafish). GERP constraint analysis is available on fish genomes as well.
