NCBI blastx ‘best hits’.

Blastx results for the 16 candidate genes in the GenBank database. The hits with the highest e-values are listed. The positives and gaps are listed to provide a context for the e-values because a low e-value does not necessarily reflect low similarity. The ‘Low complexity regions filter’ was disabled for the henna search. The tan ortholog of Nasonia vitripennis is not named, instead the Apis mellifera hit with slightly lower score confirms the identity of this gene (acc. # XP_623115.1; Apis mellifera tan; Expect  = 2e-74, Positives  = 235/353 (66%), Gaps  = 11/353 (3%)). Yellow2 blastx reveals two identical B. mori sequences that have been named differently (NP_001037424.1  =  yellow2, ABC96695.1  =  yellow-fa).
