^#Filtered IR refers to those obtained after applying RNA-seq coverage and outlier-based filtering criteria; Identified IR refer to those where hairpins have been predicted by MFold program and lie closest to stop codon; RNA-seq derived IRs refer to those with hairpin located at the site in Zone 1 or Zone 2 and lie closest to pos^st. *identified site is nearer to stop codon than RNA-seq derived site.
