Gene phylogeny and amino acid alignment of i-type Lysozymes. (A) Neighbour-joining (NJ) phylogenetic analysis of i-type lysozymes from Galleria mellonella (Gme), other insect and non-vertebrate species (accession numbers are provided in the name IDs). Bootstrap values from NJ analyses are shown as percentages of 1000 replicate trees supporting the corresponding clade. (B) MAFFT alignment with part of the predicted i-type lysozyme proteins listed in the phylogeny. Identical amino acids are shaded in black and depicted by an asterisc, conserved amino acids are shaded in grey and depicted by a dot in the consensus sequence.
