Question
You performed RADseq analysis of two genomes using the restriction enzyme EcoRI. From
each genome, you obtained 10000 reads. Both genomes are the exact same size at 50000
bp. The average coverage you obtained for genome A is 20X. The average coverage you
obtained for genome B is 10X. Which genome has fewer recognition sites for EcoRI?
O a.
Neither. They both have the same number of recognition sites.
O b. Genome B
c. The data are insufficient to answer this question.
O d. Genome A
