  1. a Intact genes are defined as those sequences that 1) contain a leading signal sequence, 2) end in a stop codon after the seventh predicted transmembrane domain, 3) show significant alignment to all six stereotypical OlfC exons, and 4) possess no internal frame shifts, significant deletions (excluding those caused by gaps in the genome assembly) or stop codons.
  2. b Partial genes comprise those sequences that fail one of the first three criteria (above) but meet the fourth.
  3. c Sequences are categorized as full-length pseudogenes if they meet the first three criteria but fail the fourth.
  4. d Sequences that fail to meet all four criteria are categorized as partial pseudogenes.
  5. e Includes two partial pseudogenes identified in [37] but not identified in this study.
