This is because there is a very highly significant negative relationship between (i) the ratio of overlap number to gene number and (ii) genome length (linear regression, r 2 = 0.21 and p = 0.007 in RNA viruses, r 2 = 0.42 and p < 0.001 in DNA viruses; electronic supplementary material, figure S8).
