^aIntron position (IP) indicates the amino acid position of the intron relative to the first ATG in the open reading frame
^bRelative intron position (RIP) indicates the intron position relative to the total gene ORF length
^cAmino acids interrupted by phase 1 or 2 introns are shown in lower case
Abbreviations: nd, not determined (because of ambiguity of DNA sequence or incomplete length of CDS, as per TrichDB)
