Files containing S. cerevisiae consensus sequences generated using alignments of 5, 15 and 25 individual rDNA units, individual rDNA units used to generate the consensus sequence, the raw reads individual rDNA units were extracted from and alignments of consensus sequences to a reference rDNA unit (isolated from a BAC clone NCBI accession U53879.1, isolation and annotations generated by Floutsakou 2013). Alignments of the consensus sequences generated using 5, 15 and 25 rDNA units with each other are included under the "Alignment_of_5_15_25_consensus_sequences" file.
