a Genes are arranged relative to cox1. Those encoded on the "-" strand are indicated with an asterisk (*).
b T, and TA, refer to instances where incomplete stop codons are inferred.
c Unassigned regions are identified by positive values. Negative values indicate overlap between adjacent genes. Values in brackets refer to %AT of the associated UR (only those UR >10 bp in length were analyzed).
d For the unassigned region between trnR and trnY spanning the pseudogene rrnS.
