This page describes the various rounds of Maker-based annotations for the Parus major (Great Tit) genome.
Round 1
Rationale
For this round no P. major-based ESTs were available. Zebrafinch (T. guttata) is the closest relative for which a reasonably complete gene-model set is available. As a first pass, it was decided to let gene predictions be driven by ab-inititio predictions rather than by Zebrafinch EST.
