Vg paralogs are divided in two subfamilies with different phylogenetic origin and protein length. Subfamilies A and B, range from 1641 to 1673 and from 1738 to 1845 amino acids, respectively. Known expression bias and gene identification numbers of the automatic gene predictions from which our gene models were derived are specified. Ac_Vg2 genomic sequence is uncompleted.
