(a) Comparison of Oryza sativa genome size estimations using short reads. (b) Comparison of MGSE genome size estimations on short and long reads of O. sativa. The blue region shows the expected genome size values (Additional File 8) representing the size of the near complete genome sequence of O. sativa as the lower boundary and the size of the largest reported assembly of O. sativa as the upper boundary [88]
