This track shows multiple alignments of 241 vertebrate species and measurements of evolutionary conservation from the <a href="https://zoonomiaproject.org/the-project/" target="_blank">Zoonomia Project</a>.</p> <p> The multiple alignments were generated using the <a href="https://github.com/ComparativeGenomicsToolkit/cactus" target="_blank">Cactus comparative genomics alignment system</a> and the base-wise conservation scores were computed using phyloP from the PHAST package. For genome assemblies not available in the genome browser, there are alternative assembly hub
