Number of New microRNA Genes |
---|---|---|---|---|
Bar et al. (2008) | 454 | 4 × 105 | Custom | 13 |
Morin et al. (2008) | Illumina | 6 × 106 | miPred and custom | 104 |
Goff et al. (2009) | SOLiD | 1.1 × 108 | miRDeep | 140* |
Goff originally reported 149 new genes but a revised analysis adjusts the number to 140.
