  1. Data of P.a. (ponerine ant) were from this study. Those of A.m. (Apis mellifera) and B.m. (Bombyx mori) were from Wang et al. 2007, 2008. Those of T.c. (Tribolium castaneum) and D.m. (Drosophila melanogaster) were from Simionato et al. 2007. Those of A.p. (Acyrthosiphon pisum) were from Dang et al. 2011.
