Figure 4From: Evidence of a tick RNAi pathway by comparative genomics and reverse genetics screen of targets with known loss-of-function phenotypes in DrosophilaPhylogenetic tree constructed from the multiple sequence alignment of the partial R. microplus RdRP domain (Cat-RdRP) and hypothetical I. scapularis RdRP proteins (Iscap) to RdRP sequences from selected plants ( Nicotiana tabacum , Hordeum vulgare , Arabidopsis thaliana , Solanum lycopersicum ), fungi ( Schizosaccharomyces pombe , Neurospora crassa and Aspergillus fumigatus ), protists ( Tetrahymena thermophila and Dictyostelium discoideum ) and the metazoan C. elegans (Cele-ego-1, Cele-rrf-1/3). The branch labels display the consensus support in %.Back to article page
