Table 2 Characteristics of deletion clusters and conflicts. For each considered data set as described in the text with the parameters given in Table 1, the number of maximal deletion clusters (found by GASV) and the number and percentage of clusters involved in conflicts is given. Chromosomes 1, 6, 7, 10, 18 and 19 are not included this table. (In the complete normal data set, 44 of 3,928 deletions, i.e., 1.1% were conflicting.) "Tumor-spec." denotes the set of putatively tumor-specific deletions extracted from a pooled analysis. A precise description of the notion of conflicts and the method used to detect them is given in Sections 'Haploid Conflicts' and 'Diploid Conflicts'.
