Entamoeba histolytica vs Tetrahymena thermophila LastZ results

Entamoeba histolytica (Entamoeba histolytica, JCVI-ESG2-1.0) and Tetrahymena thermophila (Tetrahymena thermophila, JCVI-TTA1-2.2) were aligned using the LastZ alignment algorithm (LastZ) in Ensembl Protists release 109. Entamoeba histolytica was used as the reference species. After running LastZ, the raw LastZ alignment blocks were chained according to their location in both genomes. During the final netting process, the best sub-chain was chosen in each region on the reference species.
