Unique Genes refer to the actual number of sequences used in the analysis, after filtering for splice variants. For each species, the counts of overlapping genes (OGs), overlapping gene pairs (OG pairs), and overlapping gene clusters (OGCs) coming from both real data and random simulations are shown. In the latter case the average number over ten simulations is reported together with the standard deviation (SD).
