| Known genes | Anonymous ESTs | |
| UNIGENE clusters | 11191 | 75,925 |
| Singletons | 692 | 29,689 |
| UNIGENE clusters extended | 7237 | 22,795 |
| Average number of transcripts | 97 | 18 |
| Average length of UNIGENE (bp) | 2280 | 560 |
| Average length of HINT (bp) | 2749 | 843 |
| UNIGENE clusters unchanged (Non-singletons) | 3262 | 23,441 |
| Average number of transcripts | 86 | 4 |
| Average length of UNIGENE (bp) | 2833 | 506 |
-
UNIGENE clusters containing known genes or only anonymous ESTs were divided (see Methods). The sizes and lengths for each UNIGENE cluster were based on the original UNIGENE dataset. bp, Base pair.
