Comparison of performance of Computel and TelSeq in mean telomere length estimation from synthetic data.

a The actual telomere length was 30 kb attached to the Chromosome 1. b The default TelSeq read length. c For 36 nt read lengths, estimation of telomere length by TelSeq was performed with k (threshold of telomeric repeats in short-reads) equal to 4, 5 or 6; For all other read lengths, the default value of k = 7 was used. d TelSeq fails to output results for 150 nt read length. e SimSeq is available at https://github.com/jstjohn/SimSeq.
