 <strong>STEP 3:</strong> Congratulations! Your assembly hub should display!</p>
 <p>
 If you are having problems, be sure all your files and the directories are publicly accessible. You 
 may also wish to <a href="../../cgi-bin/cartReset" target="_blank">reset</a> the browser 
 occasionally to clear all existing data. For hubs to work, your server must also accept 
 byte-ranges. You can check using the following command to verify &quot;Accept-Ranges: bytes&quot;
 displays: <pre><code>curl -I http://yourURL/hub.txt</code></pre></p>
 <p>
 Now that you have the assembly hub copied from above, you can copy the directory and start to edit 
 some of the documents such as genomes.txt, groups.txt, and trackDb.txt to understand how they work. 
 Refer to the <a href="assemblyHubHelp.html" target="_blank">Assembly Hub User Guide</a> to
 understand how to build a <a href="twoBit.html" target="_blank">twoBit</a> file for
 your own original fasta files. Read more about <a href="trackDb/trackDbHub.html"
 target="_blank">trackDb settings</a> in the definition document.</p>
 <p>
+Assembly hubs also support <a href="assemblyHubHelp.html#chromAlias"
+target="_blank">chromAlias and chromAuthority</a>, which let the Browser map chromosome names
+across different naming schemes and display a preferred convention. A default naming scheme can be
+set using the <code>chromAuthority</code> setting.

+<p>
 This assembly hub is a an abbreviated version of a larger plant assembly Public Hub.  You can 
 explore the larger hub structure <a href="http://genome-test.soe.ucsc.edu/~hiram/hubs/Plants/" 
 target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
 <p>
 Please note that the Browser waits 5 minutes before checking for any changes to these files. 
 <strong>When editing hub.txt, genomes.txt, trackDb.txt, and related hub files, shorten this delay by
 adding <code>udcTimeout=1</code> to your URL.</strong> For more information, please see the 
 <a href="hgTrackHubHelp.html#Debug" target="_blank">Debugging and Updating Track Hubs</a> section of
 the <a href="hgTrackHubHelp.html" target="_blank">Track Hub User Guide</a>. Also, for more detailed 
 instructions on setting up a regular hub, please see the <a href="hgTrackHubHelp.html#Setup" 
 target="_blank">Setting Up Your Own Track Hub</a> section of the Track Hub User Guide.</p>
