(Top) Each double row depicts the nucleotides above and the corresponding amino acid translations below, with substituted positions coloured. A cladogram of taxa included in the orthogroup is placed on the left. The inland neo-W EYR gametolog appears to have lost exon 4. (Bottom) A closer view of the NDUFA12 alignment reveals a 16-codon gap in neo-Z gametologs in both EYR lineages, whereas the coastal (but not inland) neo-W EYR gametolog possesses this region.
