1The values were taken from Bennet and Leitch [38].

2Analysis of other two sequence archives, SRR400524 and SRR0722296, resulted in estimates of 650 and 750 copies, respectively.

3Sequence archive is not available. The GP was taken from Liu et al. [39].

4 GP is calculated for the whole 11.2 kb unit.
