With respect to the orthology of the myo5bb genes, we introduce the idea of the myo5b gene family having been duplicated as a result of the R1 genome duplication, an inference supported by the observation that the myo5bb gene family is found not only in teleosts but also in spotted gar, coelacanth, shark, turtle, chicken, and turkey.
