§S0.1 Gene Prediction Methodology Gene structures were predicted
... The Neurospora automated gene predictions were validated against a set of previously characterized ESTs. The ESTs were not used as evidence during the automated gene calling, and could thus be used as an independent measure of the accuracy of the gene calls. To assess gene call accuracy, EST alignme ...
