Size of gene name dictionaries. Number of objects (left plot) and synonyms (right plot) for gene name dictionaries compiled from different data sources (organism-specific database: Yeast: Saccharomyces Genome Database, Fly: FlyBase, Mouse: Mouse Genome Informatics, Rat: Rat Genome Database, Human: HUGO; 'combined' is the merged dictionary from the organism-specific database, Swiss-Prot and Entrez Gene; 'curated' is additionally expanded and pruned). In the right plot, the three marks for each dictionary correspond to the three definitions of equivalence: exact, mixed, and normalized, respectively, from left to right. For details see section 'Compilation of gene name dictionaries'.
