Numbers in each column represent the number of different TR-containing proteins detected using minP = 1 and minD = 90 amino acids for XSTREAM, and a minimum score of 500 for TRF. Within the parentheses, the number on the left represents the number of genes identified in [18] that were not identified by XSTREAM and the number on the right represents the number of genes identified by XSTREAM that were not identified by [18]. Comparison of output on an individual protein basis was only possible for L. infantum as Goto et al. (2007) did not report identified proteins for the other parasites.
