Morphology and GC-MS analysis of stink gland volatile compounds in 41 genes identified by transcriptome re-analysis.

The genes are listed by the Tc-number with gene Tc_033013 also identified in iBeetle indicated in bold. The morphological phenotype depiction is given in Fig 1 (color code respective to Fig 1I). In the GC-MS analysis, the analyzed substances were 2-Methyl-1,4-benzoquinone (MBQ) and 2-Ethyl-1,4-benzoquinone (EBQ), as well as 1-Pentadecene (1-C15) and 1-Heptadecene (1-C17). Column L indicates the color code for extraction of the data to generate Fig 2B. (XLSX)
