Table 2 A brief summary of the sequence data underlying the emerencia web service at http://emerencia.math.chalmers.se as of May 2005. The threshold BLAST E-values for "good" and "poor" matches were arbitrarily set to 0.0 and 1e-100, respectively. Graphical illustrations showing the population of the database over time and additional aspects of emerencia are generated automatically on a monthly basis and are available at the above address.
