Figure 1. PHRED quality score distribution.

Figure 1

The distribution of average PHRED quality score is plotted on X-axes and percentage of sequences on Y-axes for (a) 454 single end shotgun data (b) 454 3 kb paired end data (c) Ion Torrent single end data and (d) Illumina paired end data. Quality distribution shows that more than 95% reads from each dataset have average PHRED scores above 20.
