^aAccession numbers given for completed or draft genome sequences correspond to identifier tags in genome sequence browsers [66], except for T. cruzi. Accession numbers given for PCR sequences and T. cruzi correspond to GenBank accession numbers. Contigs were manually assembled for L. braziliensis, therefore no identifiers are available.

^b'x' denotes an absence of any evidence for a given intergenic sequence, caused either by a failed reaction or a genuine absence (see text).
