^aEight hr's reported for AcMNPV (7), nine hr's reported (53).

^bNo bro genes reported in SeMNPV (37), one bro gene reported (13).

^cOnly ORFs meeting criteria for clear identification included, ac27 iap not included.

^dCalculated using ClustalW results for complete ORFs; average based on shared ORFs. aa id, amino acid identity.
