Date Jan. 2002 Aug. 2002
Number of clones in FPC database 78,001 78,001
Number of singletons 4933 4954
Number of contigs 4792 2905
Contigs containing:
   >200 clones 0 6

   51–100 clones 21 321
   26–50 clones 1176 504
   10–25 clones 1606 920
   3–9 clones 1777 850
   2 clones 212 216
Unique bands of the contigs 364,570 346,884
Physical length of the contigs in megabase pairs 1480a 1408a
DNA markers in the contigs
