Malacostracans Toll-like receptors (TLRs). (A) Phylogenetic tree of TLRs is constructed using the maximum-likelihood method from an amino acid multiple sequence alignment of toll-IL-1 receptor (TIR) domains. Taxa labels are depicted as their respective colour codes. Bootstrap support values (n=1000) for all trees can be found in Additional file 14: Figure S8. Scale bar represents substitution per site. (B) Graph of putative TLR transcripts. The y-axes represent total number of genes identified in all 55 malacostracan species for each family. Each species is represented by a number on the X-axes and a complete list of species is available in Additional file 3: Table S2. Black horizontal bars below each graph delimit the five orders of malacostracans and the numbers in parentheses (x/y) represent the following: x = number of species in which a particular gene family is found and y = total number of species in each order.
