Taxonomic distribution of tailless retropseudogenes based on GenBank searches. Tailless retropseudogenes were retrieved exclusively from mammalian representatives (bold lines) indicating a mammalian-specific distribution with the presumed origin marked by a dot. Species represented in GenBank with their entire genome sequences are shown in bold letters. Branches of the phylogenetic tree are not drawn to scale.
