  1. Condensed pipeline results for the incense cone, agarwood chips and the Dendrobium stem IonTorrent clusters. Only the clusters with CITES hits are listed, for each CITES hit the cluster with the lowest e-value and highest sequence similarity percentage was selected. For simplicity’s sake columns with BLAST hit metadata (i.e. bit-score, e-value, accession numbers etc.) have been omitted, the full results are accessible in Additional file 1.
