  1. 1The absence of nematogalectin transcript may be due to the quality of the transcriptome assembly.
  2. 2A total of 21 minicollagen transcripts have been described for Hydra, however only 16 follow the canonical minicollagen structure.
  3. De novo genomic and transcriptomic assemblies generated in this study are shown in bold. GEN = genomic assemblies, EST= expressed sequence tags, TRAN = transcriptomic assemblies.
