* Just 2 nucleotides between Pm6-b and Pm62-d, but non-synonymous: probably two different genes. They also have Lampetra counterparts.

** Clone n of Pendleton et al.[59] corresponded to two different genes in Force et al.[62]: Hox4w and Hox6w.

*** Clone 139 and Hox11 clones mentioned in [63] as personal communication by W.J. Bailey, and Hox3y and Hox5x from [62], are not taken into account for lacking a published sequence.

Note: LpHox8B (AF044808) sequence from reference [64] contains two undetermined nucleotides, N, and could be orthologue of any other Hox8 gene previously identified.

Note 2: In the case of Pm2Hox1w the whole coding sequence is available to compare, and that is why is more polymorphic than other cases, whith shorter sequences to align.

Genes for which there are linkage data are shown in bold. Bold α and β genes belong to Pm1Hox and Pm2Hox clusters, respectively. See [67] and [68].

nt, nucleotides; aa, amino acids; syn, synonymous; del, deletion.
