The number of reads (initially assembled contigs in parentheses) that had the corresponding tag sequences.
The number of reads that constituted the OR-related contigs after excluding non-OR sequences and the OR contigs with <5× coverages as well as unifying sequences with <1% sequence divergences (see text).
The number of reads that constituted putatively legitimate OR-coding sequences after excluding chimeras for the lizard sequences and after excluding contigs with <11× coverages for the ratsnake sequences (see text). Database accession numbers for the resultant contig sequences are also given in the next column.
Whole body frozen specimens are deposited to the Specimen Depository of the Graduate School of Natural Sciences, Nagoya City University.
