G + C content is defined by the total number of C:s and G:s divided by the number of standard nucleotides (i.e., not N).
Including introns but not untranslated regions. Only protein encoding genes are included.
Predicted genes ≥100 bp. The total number was 6,431 including short genes (10–99 bp).
Only exons with coding sequences are reported. Untranslated regions are not included.
