Table 4 Pairwise comparison of the amino acid sequences of the 12 protein coding mitochondrial genes

From: Analyses of mitochondrial amino acid sequence datasets support the proposal that specimens of Hypodontus macropi from three species of macropodid hosts represent distinct species

  1. These percentage differences are based on comparisons between three operational taxonomic units (OTUs) of Hypodontus macropi from three different hosts (i.e., OTU-C from Macropus robustus robustus; OTU-G from Macropus bicolor, OTU-J from Thylogale billardierii).
