Number of markers for each type and conservation level.
| Marker type | metatheria | amniote | total |
|---|---|---|---|
| coding | 4335 | 9951 | 14286 |
| non-coding | 46914 | 26217 | 73131 |
Coding markers are genes as annotated in EnsEMBL and non-coding markers are non-coding conserved regions (taken from the UCSC 28-way alignment). A human marker (coding or non-coding) conserved only at between human and opossum is labeled as metatheria marker. A human marker conserved both with opossum and chicken is labelled amniote marker.
