The coverage of the theoretical contigs in the EcoRI1k4k library by the EcoRI1k4k sequence reads exhibits a bimodal distribution. A majority of contigs are covered completely. However, one-tenth of the theoretical contigs are not covered at all. This is also observed in the other libraries assembled.
