NOTE.—Pop PCR = PCR performed on DNA extracted from a clonal culture; SC PCR = PCR performed on a single cell. A complete table is available as supplementary table 1 (Supplementary Material online); clones = number of clones sequenced; genes = number of distinct actin gene sequences obtained; nonchimera = number of distinct actin sequences determined to be nonchimeric.
