^#Likelihood ratio test was performed using D. pseudoobscura, D. persimilis and D. miranda.
* O – other conserved non-coding sequences; R – RNA secondary structure. The number after the letter indicates the number of nucleotides assigned by QRNA to this category, which is in all cases equivalent to length of the full transcript.
