Protein identity according to Gene Ontology. An. albimanus transcriptome was GO annotated using Blast2GO and partitioned according to biological process or molecular function. A) Average percent identity of biological function classes with respect to An. gambiae in the ortholog dataset. Average protein identity of response to stress and transcription genes was significantly lower than cytoskeleton organization and protein transport genes (*** P < 0.001. Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn’s multiple comparison test). B) Average protein identity of best hit matches with respect to An. gambiae categorized according to molecular function. Average identity of electron carrier function and Peptidases were significantly lower than calcium and actin binding, translation factor and structural function genes (*** P < 0.001. Kruskal-Wallis test and Dunn’s multiple comparison test). For A and B, red lines indicate the average protein identity of the corresponding GO annotated subset. Blue lines indicate overall protein identity.
