Figure 8 .
Number of C. elegans BLAST hits with greater similarity by BLAST score than the first nonnematode hit, for the 29 new genes identified here (left) and for all C. elegans predicted protein-coding genes. Histograms are shown along with box-and-whisker plots at top, with boxes representing the 25–75% quartile ranges (0–35.5 for the 29 genes identified and 0–13 for all genes). Medians are marked in blue.
