DeepGW

The ancestors of insects are considered to be crustaceans of the phylum Arthropoda, including mollusks, arachnid organisms, etc. In this study, 119 species genomes were selected from the National Center for Biotechnology Information database(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/), and protein-coding genes were used as the constructed dataset for DeepGW (Table S1). The 119 species were categorized into 38 wingless (i.e., Malacostraca, Arachnida, and Collembola) and 81 winged (81 winged insects in 14 orders) based on the evolutionary characteristics of wings, and the molecular mechanisms of key genes on the origin and evolution of insect wings were investigated by DeepGW .昆虫的祖先被认为属于节肢动物门（Arthropoda）的甲壳类类群，涵盖软体动物、蛛形纲生物等类群。本研究从美国国家生物技术信息中心（National Center for Biotechnology Information, NCBI）数据库（https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/）中选取119个物种的基因组，以蛋白质编码基因作为DeepGW数据集的构建基础，相关信息详见附表S1。基于翅膀的演化特征，本研究将这119个物种划分为38个无翅类群（包含软甲纲、蛛形纲与弹尾纲）与81个有翅类群（隶属于14个目，共计81种有翅昆虫）；并通过DeepGW方法，探究了关键基因在昆虫翅膀起源与演化过程中的分子调控机制。
