From: Screens in fly and beetle reveal vastly divergent gene sets required for developmental processes

Beetle genes showing phenotypes expected from Drosophila. A Gene sets known to be required for a given process in Drosophila were compared to iBeetle data. Close to three quarters showed related phenotypes (blue) while others had no or different types of phenotypes (green). B Approximately one quarter of the genes known to be required for certain Drosophila processes were not required for that process in Tribolium. This analysis is based on the subset of genes which already had been screened in Tribolium (51%). Interestingly, we found orthologs for 66% of the respective Drosophila genes—this indicates that our screen was enriched for relevant genes
