Figure 1

Phylogenetic placement and genome characteristics of Ch. tentans compared to other Dipteran species. (A) The phylogenetic placement as reconstructed from 531 conserved single-copy genes. The scale bar represents phylogenetic distance measured as nucleotide substitutions per site divided by the length of the sequence. (B) The genomic repeat content and (C) the genomic GC content of Ch. tentans and four other species of the order Diptera. The full phylogenetic reconstruction including nine arthropods and three outgroup nematodes is presented in Additional file 1: Figure S2.
