Gene pairs are ordered according to evolutionary conservation. First column shows the number of species where a particular gene pair is present. Second column shows the total count of the gene pair in all species where it occurs. A star (*) indicates that both genes in a pair have a GO annotation. Functional relationships were inferred by mining of literature.
