Number of NUMTS, coding NUMTs (cNUMTs), and divergent coding NUMTs (dcNUMTS) in birds and mammals
| NUMT type | No. in mammals | No. in birds |
|---|---|---|
| NUMTs | 85,100 | 28,947 |
| cNUMTs | 5229 | 1200 |
| dcNUMTs | 4182 | 917 |
| dcNUMTs/non-dcNUMTs in groups | 2670/144 | 157/6 |
| single dcNUMTs | 2024 | 786 |
| dcNUMTs single+grouped | 511 | 26 |
[i] As dcNUMTs can have multiple genes, they might group with other dcNUMTs multiple times.
