  1. The intervals in parentheses for shadow regression estimates are the 95% confidence intervals of the estimates. The column “mm” gives the mismatch counting estimates using the standard PhiX reference genome. The column “mm / new genome” gives the mismatch counting estimates using the PhiX genome corrected for mutations shown in Figure 7.
