Figure 6
Topology of the neighbor-joining tree of all An. gambiae CPR genes. Gene names are omitted here for clarity. Detailed phylogenies of the RR-1 and RR-2 clades are presented as Figures 7 and 8. Distances are based on the amino-acid sequence of the aligned and weighted R&R Consensus as described in the text. We used the JTT exchange matrix [49] as implemented in MEGA3 [48]. The core group of RR-1 and RR-2 proteins and an intermediate group of RR-1, RR-2, and RR-3 proteins are marked. The sequence clusters defined in the text are also marked. Symbols represent the chromosome arm on which each gene is located. The three without symbols have not been placed on a chromosome.
