aAH, Alien_Hunter prediction. The score reflects the compositional deviation of those regions from the genome background compositional distribution. The higher the score the more atypical the corresponding sequence. A typical score threshold suggestive of LGT is 6.157 (Vernikos and Parkhill 2006).

bLGT = β€œYes” when MTBvMMvMAP comparisons were suggestive; LGT = β€œ?” when three-way genome comparisons were inconclusive.

NP, No prediction.
