Figure 2. Comparative analysis of putative toxins identified from the transcriptomic datasets.

Transcripts were identified as encoding for potential toxins in the transcriptomes of the myxozoans (A) Buddenbrockia plumatellae (n = 124) and (B) a mixed myxosporean dataset (n = 96 putative toxins) the free living cnidarian (C) Calvadosia cruxmelitensis (n = 302) and the free-living and parasitic (D) Polypodium hydriforme (n = 214). Toxins were identified from each transcriptome using a customised annotation pipeline based on known domain and sequence homology searching.
