Chicken (Gallus gallus, WASHUC2) and Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata, taeGut3.2.4) were aligned using the Translated Blat alignment algorithm (Kent W, Genome Res., 2002;12(4):656-64) in Ensembl release 53. Chicken was used as the reference species. After running Translated Blat , the raw Translated Blat alignment blocks are chained according to their location in both genomes. During the final netting process, the best sub-chain is chosen in each region on the reference species.
