aNumber of reads after B block trimming. bTarget region abbreviations: CTR, own capture target region of the kit; CTR + flank, own capture target region ± 100 bp; CCDS, exon annotated regions from CCDS, Ensembl v59; Common, regions captured by all the kits in comparison. cData from the sequencing lanes combined and randomly down-sampled to meet comparable read amounts after filtering. dSequenced with 100 bp, reads trimmed to 82 bp prior to any other action. eThe additional exome samples were aligned only against the whole genome and own capture target region. fSequenced with 110 bp, reads trimmed to 82 bp prior to any other action.
