We are pleased to announce the DGV Gold Standard track for human (GRCh19/hg19). This track displays copy number variants (CNVs), insertions/deletions (InDels), inversions and inversion breakpoints annotated by the Database of Genomic Variants -(DGV). The initial criteria for the Gold Standard set require that a variant is found in at least +(DGV). The initial criteria for the Gold Standard set require that a variant be found in at least two different studies and found in at least two different samples. After filtering out low-quality variants, the remaining variants are clustered according to 50% minimum overlap, and then merged into a single record. Gains and losses are merged separately.
The DGV Gold Standard track utilizes a boxplot-like display to represent the merging of records. The highest ranking variant in the cluster defines the inner "box", while the outer lines define the outermost start and stop coordinates of the CNV. In this way, the inner box forms a high-confidence CNV location and the -thin connecting lines indicate confidence intervals for the location of CNV. +thin connecting lines indicate confidence intervals for the location of the CNV.

We would like to thank Jeff MacDonald and the Database of Genomic Variants group for providing guidance and these data. We would also like to thank Christopher Lee and Conner Powell as well as the entire UCSC Genome Browser team for creating and releasing this track.
Genome browsers are now available for the Bos taurus assembly released in Apr. 2018 by the USDA Agricultural Research Service (ARS-UCD1.2), and the Papio anubis assembly released in Apr. 2017 by the
