^aAll chromosome attributes are from the Eucalyptus grandis reference genome [19], except diversity and divergence which were estimated by Hudson et al. [34]
^bEquivalent to 'Scaffold Size' in Table 2
^c Number of genes per Mbp
^d Number of transposable elements per Mbp
^e The proportion of annotated genes which are tandem duplicates
