  1. Nonmotile species include stramenopiles, haptophytes, diatoms, and green algae; motile species are all dinoflagellates; motile small species include cryptophytes, euglenophytes, stramenopiles, and haptophytes. The genes of N. oceanica are searched against the genome obtained in this study, while those of N. gaditana are searched against the genome published early19 (searching with e-value < e−5 as the threshold of expected hits; filtrated with those of full lengths as candidates and accepted as the protein expected if a candidate shows the highest similarity which is usually extremely less than the e-value threshold for searching and is annotated simultaneously as the expected).
