^aEvidence codes - IDA: inferred from direct assay; TAS: traceable author statement (i.e., a direct report exists in the literature); NAS: non-traceable author statement (i.e., not directly observed for the living, isolated sample but rather based on a generally accepted property for the species or on anecdotal evidence). These evidence codes are from the Gene Ontology project [45]. If the evidence is IDA, then the property was directly observed for a live isolate by one of the authors or an expert mentioned in the acknowledgements
