Detection of repeat contigs. Contig R is linked to contigsA and B to the right. The distances estimated betweenR and A and R and B are such thatA and B cannot be positioned without substantial overlap between them. If there is no corresponding detected overlap between A and B (if their reads do not overlap), thenR is probably a repeat linking to two unique regions to the right.
