“…If the unigenes contained in the distinct clusters were treated as single unigenes, then the total number of annotated unigenes would be 27,562, and the annotated proportion would be 41.0%, which is close to the proportion of unigenes in the same cluster treated as independent unigenes. Non-BLASTable ( E -value > 1e-5) sequences have been reported in all studied plant transcriptomes, with the proportion varying from 13.0 to 80.0%, depending on the species, the sequencing depth and the parameters of the BLAST search (Parchman et al, 2010; Blanca et al, 2011; Ness et al, 2011; Zhang et al, 2012, Zhang F.J. et al, 2014). Non-BLASTable (E-value > 1e-5) sequences might result from biological factors, including rapidly evolved genes with divergent sequences, species-specific genes, and the persistence of non-coding fractions derived mainly from untranslated regions (Logacheva et al, 2011; Zhang et al, 2012).…”
