E. bieneusi statistics with a comparison to the E. cuniculi genome.

1Estimation based on PFGE data.2Values based on analysis of contigs >5 kb and their encoded genes. Bracketed values indicate values based on the survey data and not a complete genome.3The 5S, 5.8S-SSU and LSU rRNA genes have been identified in E. bieneusi but are located on short contigs, with very short regions of sequence upstream and downstream, suggesting that these are either surrounded by sequences that are difficult to clone into E. coli or are difficult to sequence, such as highly repeated sequences. Therefore, the copy number of these genes cannot be determined at this time.4CDS, coding sequences; NA, not applicable5Values based on data from Table S4.
