Note—Oviparous species are denoted with an (o), and viviparous species with a (v). Significantly differentially expressed genes are indicated by different alphabetical characters (adjusted P value < 0.05)

dEvidence for each gene’s role in human placenta comes from either measuring the expression of messenger RNA (mRNA) or protein (prot).
