Overview of the genomes used in the test data sets. The Present/Absent numbers indicate the percentage of probes on the arrays having sequence identity above (Present) or below (Absent) the threshold of Rb = 0.7. Percentages refer to the total number of probes, i.e. 5057 on the S. aureus array and 3243 on the E. faecalis array.
