overestimated Chromosome size.

[shehongbing]

Hi, Prof. Zhang,

Recently, i have a dipolid geome (2n=12) project. And it has 1.7% heterozygosity. Fisrt, i removed redundant sequnces using purge_haplotigs. Then, these contigs were scaffolding using ALLHIC. However, a overestimated, approximately 400 Mb, chromosme size was obtained. What should i solve these issues.

Could you please provided some suggestions for me how to assemble diopolid genome with the high heterozygostity.

Thx Hongbing
