Distribution of sequence length. (a) Distribution of read lengths of the sequenced ESTs after quality control. The average read length was 569 bp, corresponding to a peak of between 500 and 600 bp. (b) Distribution of sequence length of assembled contigs. The average length of contigs was 597 bp. (c) Distribution of the number of ESTs per assembled contig. Most of the contigs had one EST. The two largest contigs contained over 400 ESTs (cytochrome c oxidase subunit I and 12S rRNA, respectively).
