Figure 3From: Comparative and phylogenomic studies on the mitochondrial genomes of Pentatomomorpha (Insecta: Hemiptera: Heteroptera)Possible evolutionary mechanism of the gene rearrangement in Largidae and Pyrrhocoridae. A, the putative ancestral arrangement; some regions of mtDNA including the tRNA-T and the tRNA-P were duplicated to form the intermediate (B) where some regions were lost to form C, Largidae D, Pyrrhocoridae. Dup.1-3 are the duplicated regions. The X in B indicates the randomly lost regions.Back to article page
