Large genomic differences between the morphologically indistinguishable diplomonads Spironucleus barkhanus and Spironucleus salmonicida

Table 2 SNPs observed in homologous regions in the S. vortens genome.

Gene	length	#GSS ^a	#EST ^a	#SNP
Enolase	563	5	9	0
Ribosomal protein S2	508	5	>300	10
Glutamate dehydrogenase	N/A^b	-	-	-
HSP70	517	24	~100	>40
Pyruvate kinase	451	32	>300	>60

^a) Covering at least 80% of the region.
^b) Not available; no glutamate dehydrogenase sequences were detected in the released S. vortens sequences.
