Without the HAPPY map, the collaborators in the genome project would have found assembly to be extremely difficult, and the Dictyostelium genome sequence would perhaps have been left highly incomplete. With the HAPPY Map the YAC clones can be remapped and the original YAC skim strategy followed. In conclusion, this method has already made one community very happy and seems sure to make its mark in many other genome projects.
