Fig. 3: Expression of putative venom proteins identified in the transcriptomes of Euroleon nostras and Chrysoperla carnea.
From: Divergent venom effectors correlate with ecological niche in neuropteran predators
The heat maps represent the relative expression levels presented as log2(TPM + 1) in the maxillae (Mx), mandibles (Md), anterior head (HA), posterior head (HP), foregut (FG), midgut (MG), hindgut (HG), and remaining body (RB) of E. nostras, and in the head, gut and RB of C. carnea. The identified contigs were grouped according to their protein family membership associations represented by color-coded blocks. The black bars next to the heat maps mark the proteins that were detected in the venom proteome. White bars represent proteins that were not found in the proteome but featured a signal peptide (SP).
