Figure 2.

Alignment of the initiation codons of the COI genes of lepidopterans, including those of L morsei and C. pomona. The first four or five codons for COI and their amino acids are shown on the right-hand side of the figure. Underlined nucleotides indicate the adjacent partial sequence of tRNA T y r . Arrows indicate the transcriptional direction. Boxed nucleotides indicate the currently proposed translation initiators for the COI gene of lepidopteran insects. The start codon for L morsei and C. pomona is designated as CGA. High quality figures are available online.
