A comparison of gene repertoire of R. coronifer s.s. with previously published genomes of R. varieornatus and H. exemplaris. BLASTX queries were run with the R. coronifer s.s. transcriptome as input against the proteome set in the two genomes, with e-value threshold of 1e-5. The number of conserved genes (9352–12,119) as well as their percentage within the total proteome (57–68%) were highly consistent throughout the analysed transcriptomes and genomes. These set of genes include those related to anhydrobiosis, including many tardigrade-specific heat soluble proteins
