GS-FLX results.

Summary of the output from two GS-FLX runs. Ten moa DNA extracts were used, representing two types of substrate and four moa species. D, Dinornis; P, Pachyornis; A, Anomalopteryx. The first run (#1) was conducted using traditional 454-libraries and each of the six moa extracts occupied 1/8 of a PicoTiter plate. Run #2 was performed with pooled MID-tagged libraries added to a full plate. Reads and Average length describe the total number of filtered sequences and their average length. STRs is number of identified microsatellites (≥6 repeat units) and Percentage (%) denotes the proportion of reads with microsatellites.
