Comparison of exon counts in single-copy orthologues between C. monodelphis sp. n. and C. elegans. a Exon counts in 6,174 single-copy orthologous gene pairs. C. monodelphis sp. n. genes which had transcripts with CDS lengths 20% longer (orange) or shorter (black) than C. elegans were defined as outliers. Linear regression lines are shown. Inset: Frequency histogram of log2 ratio of C. monodelphis sp. n. exon counts to C. elegans exon counts. b Comparison of gene structures of five orthologous gene pairs. Three gene pairs were selected at random and a further two were selected because they showed a large divergence in exon count
