Expansion of gene families associated with metabolism and detoxification in MED/Q genome. a Number of detoxification-related genes in the genomes of 12 selected insects (*denotes herbivorous insects) annotated as UDP glycosyltransferases (UGT), glutathione S-transferase (GST), ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter, and, carboxyl/choline esterases (COE). b Neighbor-joining phylogeny of the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase genes between BEMTA (red) and ACYPI (black). Four insect CYP clades indicated as follows: CYP2 (green), CYP3 (blue green), CYP4 (pink), and the mitochondrial clade (blue). Predicted MED/Q-specific expansions within the CYP gene family are indicated (orange boxes). Q-type Bemisia tabaci (MED/Q), B-type Bemisia tabaci (MEAM1/B), Acyrthosiphon pisum (ACYPI), Nilaparvata lugens (NILLU), Rhodnius prolixus (RHOPR), Pediculus humanus (PEDHU), Anopheles gambiae (ANOGA), Drosophila melanogaster (DROME), Apis mellifera (APIME), Nasonia vitripennis (NASVI), Tribolium castaneum (TRICA) and Bombyx mori (BOMMO)
