We compared the list of genes found to be expressed (per tissue) from the ZFIN database to the list of genes found to be expressed in the carp tissue of this study. The numbers given refer to the gene count found exclusively in carp (carp only), ZFIN (ZFIN only) or present in both carp and ZFIN. The overlap in percentage of the total number of ZFIN genes linked to these tissue is also shown
