Relationship between pairwise \(s_{2}^{*}\) estimated using K=14 and M=12 based on 67 vertebrate genomes and NGS samples of different numbers of reads. a The relationship before bias adjustment. b The relationship after bias adjustment for NGS \(s_{2}^{*}\). The root mean squared error was decreased, and the Spearman correlation coefficient between pairwise genome \(s_{2}^{*}\) and NGS \(s_{2}^{*}\) was increased after bias adjustment
