(A) A summary of distribution of variants in the 45S pre-rDNA and IGS regions and their frequencies per kilobases are shown. The number of variants validated in all deep sequenced individuals versus any deep-sequenced individuals are also listed. The last column lists variants validated in deep-sequenced RNA samples. (B) Variants categorized as SNPs, insertions and deletions are listed for transcribed rDNA and IGS regions.
