^aEvidence codes
IDA Inferred from Direct Assay, TAS Traceable Author Statement (i.e., a direct report exists in the literature), NAS Non-traceable Author Statement (i.e., not directly observed for the living, isolated sample, but based on a generally accepted property for the species, or anecdotal evidence). These evidence codes are from the Gene Ontology project [50]. If the evidence code is IDA, the property was directly observed by one of the authors or an expert mentioned in the acknowledgments
