Enriched GO term of rapidly evolving gene families in P. steinenii. (a) TreeMap summarized from the redundant GO terms using REVIGO for all GO terms linked to rapidly evolving gene families. (b) GO terms linked to 25 P. steinenii-specific gene families. Enriched biological process terms were visualized using REVIGO. The terms “detection of mechanical stimulus involved in sensory perception of pain,” “larval turning behavior,” “sensory perception of pain,” and “sodium ion transport” were related to expansions of pickpocket protein 28 gene family (group51) and group6074. “Positive regulation of cholesterol esterification,” “fatty-acyl-CoA biosynthetic process”, and “unsaturated fatty acid biosynthetic process” were related to the expanded acyl-CoA delta desaturase gene family (group1599), and “protein folding” was related to the expanded Hsc70 gene family (group513).
