Comparison of results. Comparison of OrthoMCL and Proteinortho to the COG-database. The following assignments were defined: identity: the group equals a COG-group; subset: the group is subset of a COG-group, at least two proteins are equal; superset: the group is a superset of a COG-group, at least two proteins are equal; new: none of the above-noted criteria matched. Both tools reveal comparable results with respect to the manually curated COG-database. OrthoMCL covers more identical and differently composed groups while Proteinortho is more restrictive and reports fewer new groups which are not present in the COG-database. All groups with less than six species were omitted from the OrthoMCL and Proteinortho data. See Additional File 2 for comparisons with different minimal coverage.
