Figure 3: Genes evolving faster in mutualists are associated with the nervous system.

From: Comparative genomics reveals convergent rates of evolution in ant–plant mutualisms

Figure 3

Mean±s.e. expression levels of FlyBase orthologues of 4,727 genes with consistently greater dS in mutualists (green), generalists (orange) and all other genes (grey) for every tissue examined by modENCODE. False discovery rate-corrected significance is shown with letters. The large grey box highlights expression data from heads of adult flies.
