Specimen	18S	ITS1	5.8S	ITS2	28S
Mtspo_JL467 (from K. andersoni)	1828	316	155	401	3545
Mtspo_JL472 (from A. sanguinea)	1827	354	155	535	3549
Mitosporidium daphniae	1823	414	155	726	3724/3533*
Mtspo_JL467 vs. Mtspo_JL472	93.80%	48.64%	95.48%	53.15%	84.73%
Mtspo_JL467 vs. Mitosporidium daphniae	93.36%	49.04%	94.84%	52.64%	85.25%
Mtspo_JL472 vs. Mitosporidium daphniae	98.74%	52.71%	99.35%	57.09%	92.80%

There were discrepancies between the length of the 28S indicated by the authors and the length suggested by Rfam. The first value is the length as noted on GenBank; the second is the length measured in this study.
