Illustration of conditions that lead to an assembly gap due to contained read deletion. (A) An example of a sequencing output that is affected by the deletion of contained reads r6 and r7. Removing contained reads r6 and r7 introduces an assembly gap on haplotype 2. (B) An example of a sequencing output where contained read deletion does not introduce an assembly gap. Read r6 supports the sampling interval of contained read r7 after its deletion.
