Full genome re-sequencing reveals a novel circadian clock mutation in Arabidopsis

Table 1 Enumeration of SNPs detected between Arabidopsis accessions Ws-2 and Col-0, according to chromosome

Protein coding gene locations were extracted from the latest TAIR 8 genome release, with information extracted from TIGR xml formatted files cross-referenced with FASTA formatted sequence files. SNPs within coding sequence (CDS) regions were classified as either synonymous (silent) or non-synonymous (amino acid changing) mutations, or as causing the creation or deletion of stop codons. In 11 instances, across the entire genome, inconsistency in the documented CDS locations prevented unambiguous classification of SNPs falling within these CDS regions; such SNPs are recorded under the category 'unclassifiable'. Similarly, SNPs falling within transcriptional units marked as pseudogenes could not be classified. All other SNPs falling within documented transcriptional units, but outside of specified CDS regions, are marked as intronic. All SNPs located out of the documented transcriptional units are classified as intergenic. ^aApparent number of SNPs based on the fact that splice variation means some SNPs will be scored twice. ^bActual number of SNPs.
