Additional data file 9:

Genes affected by predicted structural variants (predicted by both read-pair mapping and the HMM) in both strains. The genes, strain, type of variant and exons affected are indicated. Type is either deletion (as predicted from read-pair mapping), copy number loss (CN_Loss) or copy number gain (CB_Gain).
