Comparative genomics. a Phylogenetic placement among T. tridentatus and other Chelicerata species. The phylogeny with 111 single-copy orthologous genes presented in all 14 species was built using RAxML. The tree was rooted with S. maritima. b Orthology comparsion among T. tridentatus and other Chelicerata species. There were 2720 (22.2%) and 2648 (21.5%) orthologs of T. tridentatus and L. polyphemus uniquely shared by the two species (major part of the corresponding light blue bar). C. sculpturatus had the most expanded species unique genes (7328), followed with 6247 N. clavipes specific genes. The number of species specific genes of T. tridentatus and L. polyphemus were in between with 1124 and 857, respectively. The images depicted in Figure 1 were redrawn by the authors according to picture source materials searched from Google images
