Sex-biased expression of IRs in C. hominivorax antennae. (a) Twenty-one IRs were expressed in the antennae, of which three were differentially expressed (DE) between sexes, all with higher expression in females. Differential expression based on FDR adjusted p < 0.05. (b) The three DE IRs are related to two D. melanogaster receptors based on the IR phylogeny. Figures were generated using the interactive Tree of Life (iTOL) v4 software36 (https://itol.embl.de/). (c) In D. melanogaster, Ir75a confers an olfactory response to propionic, butyric and acetic acids40, while Ir76a elicits an olfactory response to phenylethylamine41.
