Table 1. Effects of the nucleotide context and the stop codon on basal readthrough (B), gentamicin-induced readthrough (G) and increase factor (I).

Hierarchies were established based on ANOVA/LSD tests after normalization of B, G and I. The sign>indicates a higher level of readthrough or factor of increase. In bold results obtained with a p≤0.05 (Table S5 and Table S6).
