1.52 s

d Two RNase P RNAs

35.36 s

6.96 s

eTwo 16S rRNAs

  1. The two algorithms have been performed on the same representative RNAs for comparison. Letter s represents seconds. In c, Halobacterium spl and Christiansenis pallida are chosen to compare. In d, Porphyra purpurea chloroplast and Bacillus subtilis are chosen to compare. In e, Thermotoga and Saccharomyces cerevisiae are chosen to compare.
