Table 3. Genome-wide averages (range) of current GC content, GC*, and GC*CpG.

	Chicken	Human
GC content	0.4034 (0.3224–0.5509)	0.4090 (0.2939–0.6444)
GC*	0.4752 (0.3277–0.7440)	0.4027 (0.2056–0.7016)
GC*CpG	0.3988 (0.2895–0.6056)	0.3464 (0.1866–0.5725)

Genome-wide averages (range) were determined based on nontranscribed and nonrepetitive regions of the genome.
