Figure 1

The phylogenetic positions of the 35 SlitORs whose function has been investigated are indicated. The tree was built from amino-acid sequences of OR repertoires of S. littoralis, Helicoverpa armigera (family Noctuidae, branches coloured in red), Bombyx mori (Bombycidae, dark blue), Manduca sexta (Sphingidae, light blue), Dendrolimus houi (Lasiocampidae, pink), Heliconius melpomene (Nymphalidae, orange), Ostrinia furnacalis (Crambidae, purple) and Epiphyas postvittana (Tortricidae, green). The Orco clade was used as an outgroup. Circles represent nodes highly supported by the likelihood-ratio test (black: aLRT >0.95; grey: aLRT >0.9). The letters in the circles (A–U) appoint the 21 OR clades. The scale bar represents 0.5 expected amino-acid substitutions per site.
