Genomic organization of Hox and ParaHox genes in five cnidarian genomes. Solid lines sharing homeobox genes represent genomic scaffolds. The scaffold and gene ID numbering in Hydractinia genomes are shown above gene boxes. Broken lines depict homologous cnidarian-specific Hox genes. Alternative gene names are shown above gene boxes for C. hemisphaerica, N. vectensis, and Acropora digitifera.
