  1. Distribution of TAAR genes, pseudogenes and edge genes identified in the five cichlids and the other five model fishes (Table 1), between the various families and subfamilies. The left column shows the corresponding classes (I to III) defined by Hussain et al. [16] and the right column shows groups I to XIV defined by Gloriam et al. [43]. Lower case letters e, f, p and s are for edge, fragment, pseudo and spliced gene, respectively.
