The expression profiles of AsegIRs. A Heatmap with TPM value (transcripts per million) showing the expression levels of the AsegIRs in different female and male antennal samples, as well as ovipositor samples. B The expression of AsegIRs from IR75p and IR75q lineages and the co-receptor IR8a in different tissues and sexes, determined by qPCR. Three biological replicates, each including three technical replicates, were performed for each gene. M, male; F female; ant, antennae; prob, proboscis; ovi, ovipositors; ab, abdomens; h+t, head and thorax (without antennae); w, wings. Individual data values are shown as green filled circles. As AsegIR75q.1 and AsegIR75q.2 are located on the same transcript, it is not possible to distinguish the TPM value for each of them from the transcriptome data, whereas the qPCR results demonstrated that both were more abundant than the other three AsegIRs in the IR75p/q expansion
