Minimum, mean, median, and maximum CC values were calculated for the 5′, 3′ UTR and intron regions of different Drosophila species compared to A. gambiae. The num[[parms resize(1),pos(50,50),size(200,200),bgcol(156)]] comparisons and the p value are also included. ^†For 5′ and 3′ UTRs, the following Drosophila species were examined: D. ananassae, erecta, grimshawi, melanogaster, mojavensis, pseudoobscura, and simulans. ^‡For introns, the following Drosophila species were examined: D. ananassae, erecta, grimshawi, melanogaster, mojavensis, persimilis, pseudoobscura, sechelia, simulans, virilis, willistoni, and yakuba.
