Changes in BeninΔA179L during whole genome sequencing ^a

	Reference position	Change type	Size (bp)	SNP b %	Depth
Indel	48,152	Deletion of A179L from 48,152 to 48,534, replaced by GUS	383
SNP	48,741	g.48741delT, SNP in the noncoding region between A179L and A137R; present in the transfer plasmid	1	98.7	1,000
SNP	68,364	c.798delT; p.S266fs; SNP in EP402R leading to frameshift	1	97.8	1,000

^a Reads were assembled under the variant analysis module (SeqMan NGen, DNASTAR) using the Benin 97/1 genome sequence obtained from NCBI (accession number: AM712239) as a reference guide.

^b SNP, single nucleotide polymorphisms.
