Here N_ClonesCtg is the total number of clones in contigs with 6 clones and more (others were excluded from the analysis); N_Ctgs is the number of contigs with 6 clones and more; N_{MeanClonesCtg} is the mean number of clones in the contigs with 6 clones and more; L_{MeanClonesCtg} = L_CloneObs N_{MeanClonesCtg}/Covarege is estimated mean length of the contigs with 6 clones and more; N_ChCtg is the number of chimerical clones in the contigs with 6 clones and more (false negatives in the procedure of Q-clone detection); N_QNotCh is the number of non-chimerical clones that were identified as Q-clones (false positives); N_Q is the number of clones that were not included into contigs; N_{CtgsNonLinear} is the number of contigs with non-linear topological structure; N_CtgCh is the number of contigs containing clones (except chimerical ones) from non-overlapping parts; n_CtgParts is the mean number of non-overlapping parts per contig; N_CtgOrdWrong is the number of continuous contigs with errors in clone ordering.
