a
Sequenced S. aureus strains, with the source referenced in parentheses.
b
Number of genes expected to be present based on DNA sequence.
c
Number of genes determined to be present (called present) by GeneChip Microarray Suite 5.0 analysis.
d
Number of genes determined to be not present by microarray analysis.
e
Number of qualifiers that were not contained within the genomic sequence of a given sequenced strain but were incorrectly identified to be present based on Affymetrix algorithms. ND, not determined.
