27 tRNAs excluded

  1. aIntergenic regions are named by adjacent protein-encoding genes and/or ribosomal genes. tRNAs present in some of these fragments were excluded during calculation as noted in this table.
  2. bFor the large rns-cox3 IR and the small rns-cox3 IR, identical five tRNAs were excluded. Therefore, the total number of tRNAs was still 27.
  3. c“Remaining length” represents the length after excluding tRNAs. % was calculated based on remaining length.
