Phylogenetic tree of candidate GmelOBPs with known lepidopteran odorant-binding protein (OBP) sequences. Gmel, Galleria mellonella; Csup, Chilo suppressalis; Ofur, Ostrinia furnacalis; Cmed, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis; Cpun, Conogethes punctiferalis. The clade in green and purple indicates the PBPs and GOBPs, respectively; the Minus-C OBPs subfamily is marked in red and the Plus-C OBPs subfamily is marked in blue; the Classical OBPs subfamily is marked in yellow.
Phylogenetic tree of candidate GmelCSPs with known lepidopteran chemosensory protein (CSP) sequences. Gmel, Galleria mellonella; Csup, Chilo suppressalis; Ofur, Ostrinia furnacalis; Cmed, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis; Cpun, Conogethes punctiferalis; Bmor, Bombyx mori.
Phylogenetic tree of candidate GmelORs with known lepidopteran olfactory receptor (OR) sequences. Gmel, Galleria mellonella; Csup, Chilo suppressalis; Ofur, Ostrinia furnacalis; Cmed, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis; Cpun, Conogethes punctiferalis; Bmor, Bombyx mori. The clade in purple indicates the Orco receptor gene clade.
Phylogenetic tree of candidate GmelIRs with known lepidopteran ionotropic receptor (IR) sequences. Gmel, Galleria mellonella; Csup, Chilo suppressalis; Ofur, Ostrinia furnacalis; Cmed, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis; Bmor, Bombyx mori; Cpun, Conogethes punctiferalis.
Phylogenetic tree of candidate GmelSNMPs with known sensory neuron membrane protein (SNMP) sequences. Aaeg, Aedes aegypti; Acer, Apis cerana; Bmor, Bombyx mori; Cbow, Colaphellus bowringi; Cmed, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis; Cpom, Cydia pomonella; Cpun, Conogethes punctiferalis; Csup, Chilo suppressalis; Gmel, Galleria mellonella; Harm, Helicoverpa armigera; Hass, Helicoverpa assulta; Hvir, Heliothis virescens; Msex, Manduca sexta; Ofur, Ostrinia furnacalis; Onub, Ostrinia nubilalis; Pxyl, Plutella xylostella; Sexi, Spodoptera exigua; Sgre, Schistocerca gregaria; Slit, Spodoptera litura.
