Sex- and tissue-specific profiles of chemosensory gene expression in a herbivorous gall-inducing fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae)

Table 1 The number of genes in each chemosensory gene family with detected expression in the four transcriptomes

Gene family^a	Expressed genes^b
	Female antennae	Male antennae	Female abdomen	Male abdomen
Odorant receptor, OR (122)	94	64	22	30
Gustatory receptor, GR (28)	14	13	7	11
Ionotropic receptor, IR (39)	21	21	11	15
Sensory neuron membrane protein, SNMP (7)	7	7	6	6
Odorant binding protein, OBP (32)	30	31	24	25

^aNumbers within brackets refer to the number of annotated genes of each chemosensory gene family in the Hessian fly genome.
^bExpression defined as genes having at least 10 mapped read-pairs.
