Comparison of the simplitig and unitig representations for selected model organisms and a range of k-mers. The number of sequences (NS, millions) and their cumulative length (CL, megabase pairs) for both representations of six model organisms ordered by their genome size. a Streptococcus pneumoniae, 2.22 Mbp. b Escherichia coli, 4.64 Mbp. c Saccharomyces cerevisiae, 12.2 Mbp. d Caenorhabditis elegans, 100 Mbp. e Bombyx mori, 482 Mbp. f Homo sapiens, 3.21 Gbp. The CL lower bound corresponds to the number of k-mers. Full results are available in Additional file 1: Table S1–S6
