Percent Verified EST–SNPs

Direction Window size Substitutions verified (%) Ins/Del verified (%) Total verified (%)
5′ 5 92 10 26
10 100 23 40

  • The total number of EST–SNPs in the entire data set was estimated for both 5′ and 3′ contigs. Three window frame sizes (5, 10, and 20 bp), corresponding to the number of matching base pairs 5′ and 3′ to a sequence mismatch, were tested.
