  1. Note: Column “No Expr” represents the percentage of genes that do not express at all in both annotations. Column “Same” denotes the percentage of genes that have the same number of reads mapped to them in both gene models. The number in each cell after the column “Same” corresponds to the percentage of genes whose ratio is equal or greater than the threshold represented by the number.
