Hidden orthologs in the core set of centrosomal-related proteins. Presence (colored boxes) and absence (empty boxes) of the core set of centrosomal proteins (Azimzadeh et al. 2012) in all analyzed flatworm transcriptomes. Orthologs identified by direct reciprocal best BLAST hit are in blue boxes, and hidden orthologs are in orange. The asterisks indicate the CEP192 protein in the S. mediterranea transcriptomes (pink color code). These proteins were manually identified with the G. tigrina CEP192 sequence as “bridge” by reciprocal best BLAST hit. The five proteins essential for centrosomal replication are boxed in red.
