^aNumber of transcripts obtained after the reference-based assembly.

^bNumber of transcripts obtained after the reference guided de novo assembly.

^cAfter removing contaminating sequences.

^dProportion of reads pairs that mapped successfully.

^eProportion of bases that were not covered by any read.

^fThis discrete score represents the accuracy and completeness of the assembly based on the assessment of alignments between contigs and reads. The minimum score is 0, while the maximum is 1.0. For a description of the components used in the calculation of this metric, see Smith-Unna et al.³⁸.
