Phylogeny of Lepidoptera FAD genes. The maximum likelihood tree was obtained for the predicted amino acid sequence of 114 FAD genes (805 aligned positions) of 28 species, with branch support values calculated from 1000 replicates using the Shimodaira-Hasegawa-like approximate ratio test (SH_aLRT) and ultrafast bootstrapping (UFboot). Support values for branches are indicated by colored circles, with color assigned based on SH-aLRT and UFBoot supports using 80% and 95% as thresholds of branch selection for SH-aLRT and UFBoot supports, respectively. The major constituent six subfamilies of First Desaturase (A1 to E) and two subfamilies of Front-End (Cyt-b5-r) and Sphingolipid Desaturases (Ifc), respectively, are indicated following the nomenclature proposed by Helmkampf et al. [14]. For First Desaturases, the different shades correspond to the indicated putative biochemical activities and consensus signature motif (if any). Triangles indicate sequences from C. pomonella (see also Additional file 1: Figure S1 for the extended version of this tree). The scale bar represents 0.5 substitutions per amino acid position
