Figure 5From: EST analysis of male accessory glands from Heliconius butterflies with divergent mating systemsAmino acid alignments between H. melpomene and H. erato of candidate spermatophore proteins. These sequences are from the most abundant transcripts in each of three groups of highly abundant, repetitive proteins observed in the male accessory gland cDNA libraries. Dots (.) indicate identity between sequences; tildes (~) represent alignment gaps; filled boxes denote predicted signal sequences.Back to article page
