Comparison of TE landscape divergence plots and TE genome fraction pie charts in four parasitoid wasp species: M. amalphitanum, T. pretiosum, N. vitripennis and D. alloeum.
Fig 4.
Maximum likelihood analysis of phylogenetic relationships between Piwi/Argonaute coding sequences.
Colored dots denote sequences from T. pretiosum (blue), L. clavipes (gray), S. invicta (yellow) and M. amalphitanum (red). Recent duplications in the latter three hymenopterans are indicated by curly brackets, and the corresponding TE divergence plots from [58, 59] and Fig 3 are placed next to each curly bracket. Phylogeny analysis and notations are as in S12 Fig.
