Extended Data Fig. 5

(a-c) Pairwise AUROC scores showing the cross-species transcriptional similarity of the KC subtypes from three hymenopteran insects (M. pharaonis, H. saltator and A. mellifera). Comparisons with AUROC scores > 0.5 are presented as exact values. (d) Pairwise AUROC scores showing the cross-species transcriptional similarity of hymenopteran and Drosophila KC subtypes. Drosophila KCs from three independent studies, namely Davie et al24, Croset et al27 and Li et al36, were used for the analysis (see also Supplementary Data 2). Comparisons with AUROC scores > 0.5 are presented as exact values. (e-f) Dot plots showing the expression of representative shared DEGs up-regulated in Drosophila α'/β' KCs (e) and Monomorium c13/c21 KCs (f) in relative to the remaining KC subtypes.
