Patterns of cross-contamination in a multispecies population genomic project: detection, quantification, impact, and solutions

Table 1 Effect of laboratory and sequencing center variables on the probability of contamination

	LAB- distinct technicians or overlap > 200 days	LAB + same technician, overlap < 200 days
CENTER- distinct shipments	0.00089 [3/3368]	0 [0/360]
CENTER + same shipment	0.20 [89/451]	0.41 [52/128]
CENTER++ same flowcell	0.32 [78/247]	0.50 [52/104]
CENTER+++ same lane	0.43 [69/159]	0.57 [49/86]

Data are presented as: contamination probability [number of contaminated species pairs/total number of species pairs]
