* Numbers of reads per sample obtained after mapping analyses are indicated together with their proportions relative to the total read numbers in parentheses.

** Estimated rRNA substitution rate, considering that 95% of the RNA was initially composed of rRNA.

***Only reads that uniquely mapped, and did not map rRNAs.
