(A) Alignment of the intergenic spacer region between trnS2 (UCN) and nad1 of several Lepidopteran insects. The shaded ‘ATACTAA’ motif is conserved across the Lepidoptera order. (B) Features present in the A+T-rich region of D.nerii. The sequence is shown in the reverse strand. The ATATG motif is shaded. The poly-T stretch is underlined while the poly-A stretch is double underlined. The single microsatellite T/A repeats sequence are indicated by dotted underlining.
