Gene structure parameters for individual ontological classes. The four panels show average gene length, exon length, intron length, and exon number. (Black horizontal lines) The average value of the feature in the whole gene set. The “Unclassified” class refers to gene models that were not included in these ontological classes. The “Novel” class refers to gene models newly identified in this study as described in the text; these tend to be atypically small genes with few exons.
