Confidence intervals for expect (e) values between soybean sequences and A. thaliana genomic sequence, based on the number of 7 bp hits in addition to an initial 15 bp identity (SPSS Inc., Chicago, Illinois). For each category, a total of twenty, randomly selected matches sharing the same number of additional, identical 7 bp hits were compared using the BLAST2Seq utility on NCBI. The e-score values reported are those between the soybean sequences and the A. thaliana chromosome region indicated by the BLAST2seq program. For instance, when 10 additional 7 bp matches are identified by our algorithm, 95% of the short soybean sequences identified as similar to an A. thaliana genomic region had e values between e-50 and e-80 when these two sequences were compared on NCBI.
