  1. Clones are listed according to the significance of their identify-based BLASTx score E-values. * Clone number, with sequence identifier position shown in parentheses. See Additional data file 1 for sequence details. †Gene ontogeny classification based on Adams et al. [13]: E (enzyme), CSP (cytoskeletal/structural protein), DRF (DNA replication factor), ET (electron transport), IC (ion channel), MOB (mitochondrial organization and biogenesis), SP (storage protein), ST (signal transduction), TF (transcription factor), UNK (unknown).
