SoftBerry transcripts identical to HAVANA transcripts*
56.37% (of 612)
14.75% (of 590)

*Transcripts identical means that their CDS parts (including protein coding exons and coding parts of 5' and 3' exons) are identical; the percentage of SoftBerry transcripts is relative to the number of Softberry transcripts predicted in the corresponding category: mRNA supported, protein supported or ab initio.
