Structural and functional information about the 465 novel genes detected by CATMA transcriptome data. The validated transcriptome fraction is the result of our RT-PCR approach. The other evidence of transcription comes from cognate EST/cDNA, RACE PCR from TIGR or MPSS data (purple columns). They are summed up in the "other transcription evidence" class. The fractions of the novel genes sharing similarities with other genes (in Arabidopsis and/or in other species) are indicated in green. The orange column highlights the fraction of novel genes for which there is an indication complementary to CATMA data (homology or transcription) of the gene presence.
