Table 1
Deletion and duplication rates. The first column contains the name of the organism, the second column – N_genes, the number of genes in its genome, the third column is the value of the exponent γ in the best fit with p^-γto N_a(p) in the region II. The fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh columns are correspondingly the ratios , r_dup/, r_del/, and defined and measured as described in the text.
