  1. Comparison of phenotype prediction performance for different validation sets according to phylogenetic proximity of organisms (see also section "Methods"). The first column indicates the phenotype category, the second and third column represent the prediction performance in terms of the harmonic mean of sensitivity and specificity for the validation set without and with using the genus partition, respectively. Values in the fourth column correspond to the difference of prediction performance when the genus-partitioned data set is used.
