zigzag pattern in coverage histogram

Dear all,

Running some quality control of some whole genome sequencing, I notice that there is a strange zigzag pattern in the coverage histogram. I would expect a smoother line. Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this?

Many thanks enter image description here
