Phylogenetic relationships [39]among the genera tested and global results for intron amplification. To the right of the tested genus (name in black) symbols reflect the level of technical effort [✧ Not all primer pairs were tested, ✦ standard effort, ✦✦ more tests than standard (either PCR conditions or DNA extracts), ✦✦✦ several of the previous improvements], and the success column gives the number of introns scored as 'P' or 'I'. The taxa whose sequences or genomes most influenced primer design, either by being our models for the non-degenerate part of the codehop primers or by over-representation in gene family databases, are written in small grey letters. Major phylogenetic splits are indicated using the following abbreviations: BIL (Bilateria), P (Protostomia) D (Deuterostomia), Echi. (phylum Echinodermata), Uroc. (phylum Urochordata), Cnid. (phylum Cnidaria).
