Q20 percentage is the proportion of nucleotides with a quality value larger than 20; N percentage is the proportion of unknown nucleotides in clean reads; GC percentage is the proportion of guanidine and cytosine nucleotides among total nucleotides; N50 is the shortest contig length needed to cover 50% of the transcriptome; FPKM stands for Fragments Per Kilobase of transcript per Million mapped reads; Redundancy refers to the abundance of expression per gene transcript.
