Table 1 Statistics for the KOG, CEGMA, and ECK databases. The Eukaryotic Orthologous Groups (KOG) database contains sequences from seven eukaryotic genomes that were available at the time of its creation in 2003. The Conserved Eukaryotic Genes Mapping Approach (CEGMA) database is a subset of 458 KOGs that contain at least one sequence from each of the six free-living KOG organisms, from which inparalogs were then removed. These inparalogs were restored in the Expanded CEGMA KOGs (ECK) clusters, and sequences from four additional taxa annotated by the CEGMA developers were added
