Table 7 Comparison of Campylobacter coverage bias. Kolmogorov-Smirnov comparison of the distributions of reads per bin from an unamplified sample of Campylobacter jejuni with an additional unamplified replicate library and libraries amplified with GenomiPhi, Repli-G, PEP and DOP. Bin Size refers to the number of bases comprising each individual bin into which the genome was broken for analysis; 100,000 reads were used for each analysis. Ranked bias was derived from ranked D statistics, lowest to highest.
