1

BLAST E-value cutoff is e-5 for all hits reported in this table.

2

nr = NCBI non-redundant database.

3

NRAS = all non-redundant assembly products (isotigs or singletons) regardless of BLAST results against nr.

4

Numbers of sequences in each category are shown in Figure 9. Mean, median, maximum and minimum values for each category are shown in Tables 3 and 4.
