1 Velvet setting: k-mer length, coverage cutoff and expected coverage. * Analysis was run in single-end modus.

2 The number reference-sequence alignable contigs.

3 Percentage coverage of coding sequences (CDS) is given in brackets.

4 Not shown: the read library contained extensive contamination with bacteriophage (M14428) and fungal DNA (e.g. closest related to Aspergillus niger rDNA AM270052).
