Diversity of TRA and TRB repertoires in healthy individuals. Copy number (read number) of unique sequence reads (USR) was calculated. Mean copy number per unique sequence read in each individual are shown as open circle (left). Inverse Simpson index (middle) and Shannon-Weaver index (right) were calculated with R program according to formulas described in Materials and Methods. Each open circle indicates the index of an individual. There were no significant differences in mean copy number, inverse Simpson index and Shannon-Weaver index between TRA and TRB
