Gene family gains and losses across the Metazoa. Dollo parsimony phylogeny of select metazoans derived from complete protein sets, documenting the history of orthologous gene family gains and losses among the metazoans with particular respect to the Araneae. The anemone Nematostella vectensis acts as an outgroup for rooting the phylogeny. The number of genes for T. californicum and T. grallator is from Markov-model-based predictions for ORFs > 100 aa, and therefore excludes many shorter genes.
