The variability in nucleotides and amino acids is presented in percentages (rounded to the higher integer) for the 582 sequences dataset. "N" indicates the number of sequences included. "Bp" indicates the total number of base pairs or the base pairs range for the analyzed fragment after the within group alignment. "N aa" indicates the number of amino acids in the analyzed fragment after the within group alignment. Note that for Actinopterygii and Chondrichthyes only the 3'-end of the gene is indicated. "F", "5"' and "3"' indicate the full gene and the 5' and 3'-ends of the gene, respectively. See Methods for any additional information on the gene divisions and data available for each gene division.
