Table 6 Transcriptome assemblies of kCombine based on Oases and Trinity in Cochliomyia macellaria with k=25 over different values of k-mer coverage cutoff c, with locus denoting the number of predicted locus, transcripts denoting the number of predicted transcripts, n50 denoting the N50 value of the length of predicted transcripts, blastx denoting the number of hits from translated BLAST search of predicted transcripts to different transcripts of the known Drosophila melanogaster transcriptome with e-value below 10⁻²⁰, and memory denoting the physical memory requirement as a power of 2, with the value to the left of “+” indicating the memory requirement of the independent assembly of each individual library by Oases and Trinity, and the value to the right of “+” indicating the memory requirement of the merging step by kCombine
