Table 1 Genes included in the phylogenetic analyses of teleost model species and the number of positions. We used only genes for which an ortholog in Xenopus tropicalis and H. sapiens was available, as well as the full sequences set for all teleost fishes for one paralog. Regions that could not be aligned were excluded from the analyses.
