Estimates of lineage-specific indel errors in great ape genome assemblies. Using a three-way alignment of the Sumatran orangutan, chimpanzee, and human genome assemblies, it is possible to estimate the quantity of lineage-specific indel errors for the chimpanzee and human assemblies. We infer that the remaining indel errors are present in the Sumatran orangutan genome assembly.
