DescriptionLow Heterozygosity levels in the Alpine Marmot.jpg
English: The heterozygosity for a panel of mammalian genomes has been determined by remapping the original sequence reads used to assemble their reference genomes, using identical
software parameters, so that heterozygosity values are directly comparable. The inbred laboratory mouse and the Alpine Marmot come out lowest [1]

The Alpine marmot genome is characterized by remarkably low heterozygosity at the genome level, as compared to other species known for low levels of heterozygosity.
