Figure 3.
Box-plots illustrating Level 1 primary amino acid sequence similarity (A) and Level 2 functional domain sequence similarity (B) to the common water flea (Daphnia magna) ecdysone receptor (EcR) by use of the SeqAPASS tool. The open dot represents the water flea EcR and the filled black dots represent the individual species within the specified taxonomic group with the greatest percent similarity. Within a given taxonomic box, the thick and thin horizontal solid lines represent the mean and median percent similarity, respectively. The dashed horizontal line represents the susceptibility cut-off. Primary amino acid sequence similarity (A) used a susceptibility cut-off of 27.9 %. Functional domain sequence similarity used a susceptibility cut-off of 50.0 %.
