a

Only unique rearrangements were considered for analysis. Sequences scored as mutated contained three or more mutations (≥1% mutation frequency). In brackets is the frequency of mutated sequences among all sequences.

b

The percentage of point mutations among the total number of sequenced nucleotides of mutated sequences.
