Indicated are the total reads generated used in assemblies, the total number of contigs obtained after assembly, number of contigs obtained where a coverage or size cutoff was implemented, the number analyzed for annotation, the number identified as house-keeping (HKP) or secretory (SEC). The number of sequences coding for proteins or contigs deposited in Genbank is also indicated.
