  1. The average Q scores of four testing datasets with different identity ranges on HOMSTRAD are shown. For each sequence identity range, the better scores of the TCoffee modified by Lu/Sze algorithm (TCoffee-Lu/Sze) and the TCoffee modified by MTRAP algorithm (TCoffee-MTRAP) are in bold. The best scores of the other methods are also in bold.
  2. *DIALIGN reported critical errors for some testing data. Therefore, the scores of DIALIGN were calculated by the partial testing data.
