The Banbury Cross site provides benchmark sequences for comparison of genefinding programs. Here are the results from running GenomeScan on the benchmark sequences:


GenomeScan was developed by Chris Burge in the Biology Department at MIT. The GenomeScan program and the model that underlies it are described in:

GenomeScan is based in part on GENSCAN, described in:
