One-to-One Comparison Graphic

Caption

For the one-to-one comparisons, GEDmatch produces a bar for each of the 22 non-sex chromosomes that changes length depending on how similar the two profiles are for that chromosome. Shown here is an example of this graphic. A longer bar shows that there are more matching regions (top), while a series of shorter bars means that there are short regions of similarity interspersed with areas that are different (bottom).
