  1. *Start and end means the range of correlation, the number in table means how many chromosomes/scaffolds have AT/CG skew correlation number between start and end. For example, there are 17 chicken chromosomes having AT/CG skew correlation between 0.95 and 1.00. We can see in this table that birds have higher skew correlation, and no other species reach this level of correlation.
  2. **CNCL distribution of the 800 random sequences. Detailed CNCL data of these random sequences are listed in supplemental materials (file: CNCL for randoms and chromsomes.xls under link of reference) [20].
