This directory contains compressed phastCons scores for multiple alignments
of 6 vertebrate genomes to the medium ground finch genome, plus two alternate
set of scores for subsets of species in the alignments.
Files in this directory are:
geoFor1.7way.phastCons.mod - phastCons tree model for the 7 species
geoFor1.7way.phastCons.birds.mod - phastCons tree model for the birds subset:
geoFor1 taeGut1 melUnd1 galGal4 melGal1
(medium ground finch, zebra finch, budgerigar, chicken, turkey)
geoFor1.7way.phastCons.vertebrate.mod - tree model for vertebrate subset:
geoFor1 hg19 mm10
(medium ground finch, human, mouse)
Note, geoFor1 is included in each subset since it is the reference species.
phastCons scores in bigWig format files:
geoFor1.7way.phastCons.bw - all 7 species
geoFor1.7way.phastCons7wayBirds.bw - birds subset
geoFor1.7way.phastCons7wayVertebrate.bw - vertebrate subset

phastCons scores in fixed step wiggle format files:
geoFor1.7way.phastCons/phastCons7way.wigFix.gz - scores for 7 species
birds/phastCons7way.birds.wigFix.gz - scores for the birds subset
vertebrate/phastCons7way.vertebrate.wigFix.gz - scores for the vertebrate subset
