Fig 5. Phylogenetic tree of sNPF precursors and alignment analysis of sNPF sequences in parasitoid wasps and other insect species.

Chrysidoidea sequences in phylogeny trees are indicated with blue circles; Ichneumonoidea sequences are indicated with light green squares; Chalcidoidea sequences are indicated with red triangles; Cynipoidea sequences are indicated with light blue rhombuses; Orussoidea with empty squares; Platygastroidea with empty rhombuses. Numbers above branches indicate phylogenies from amino acid sequences and only values above 50% are shown. The numbers of the paracopies carrying the motif are shown by the repeat numbers. Identities in alignments are highlighted in dark (100%) and in grey (80%~100%).
