Two large deletions are identified at the nucleotide position 22,413,168–22,438,789: a 13,483 bp deletion at 22,413,168–22,426,650 and an 11,561 bp deletion at 22,427,229–22,438,789. A 578 bp fragment (yellow) is oriented in the opposite direction in the deleted region. The reference sequence of chromosome 7 was taken from the genome assembly Gallus_gallus-5.0.
