aAlthough some of the genes that do not contain CDS (protein-coding) sequences might be unannotated protein-coding genes, the majority of them may represent ncRNA genes.

b“Genomic DNA size” refers to the whole length of the genomic DNA sequences available in the annotated chromosomes in the genome version we downloaded and analyzed.
