a, Diagram of the ~1.5 mb morph locus on the A-morph assembly, showing from top to bottom: morph-specific read depth coverage; the location of LINE retrotransposons in the the Jockey family; the mapping locations of A-derived reads with a previously detected inversion signature against O females; and transcripts expressed in at least one adult individual of both I. elegans and I. senegalensis. Transcripts plotted in black are present in both the A and O assemblies, while transcripts in blue are located in genomic regions that are unique to the A haplotype or are shared between A and I but not the O allele. b, Functional annotations and sex- and morph-specific expression of transcripts. Square fill indicates whether transcript expression was detected in each group. RNA-seq data for I. elegans comes from whole-thorax samples from sexually immature and sexually mature wild-caught adults (n = 3 females of each morph and 3 males). RNA-seq data for I. senegalensis comes from a recent study in which the abdomen, head, thorax and wings were sampled in two females of each morph and two males (one individual of each group sampled upon emergence and one sampled after two days).
