Updated zebra finch reference genome assembly improves sequence alignment and gene assignments. A Sequence alignment statistics across all samples using the original (blue) and updated (orange) genomic assemblies. All comparisons were significant at p < 5e-8 or greater. B Total number of called FOXP2 peaks by condition using the original and updated genome assemblies. C Total number of high-confidence peaks and genes associated with peaks for the adult male condition, comparing the original and updated assemblies. D Total percentage of genes associated with peaks that were found using one or both assemblies
