Table 3.

The numbers of gains and losses of 1597 disease gene families for each branch of the animal phylogeny compared to the average numbers of non-disease gene families from 1000 random sub-samplings of 1597 of the total number of the non-disease gene families (7446). SD = standard deviation. SE = standard errors of the mean. 99% interval is the upper distribution limit of observations from the mean. Z score is the number of standard deviations of the disease gene numbers away from the mean non-disease gene numbers.
