Kendall's τ is listed for each comparison and P-values are given in parentheses. Significance level was set as P < 0.05/99 (that is, P < 0.0005) by Bonferroni threshold. Values are not given for those sets in which Kendall's τ was indeterminate owing to low element numbers and/or high conservation of developmental sequence, denoted "-".
