S. strix genes identified in this study. Streblomastix genes recovered from the Z. angusticollis hindgut RNA sample. For incomplete sequences, the number of missing amino acids were estimated from homologues from Giardia and/or Trichomonas. UPF1 shows extensive size variation among eukaryotic lineages (between 800 and 1600 amino acids, approximately), so it is difficult to determine how much sequence this fragment is lacking. ND: not determined.
