Expansions and contractions in gene families of independently-evolved blood-feeding insects
BACKGROUND: The blood-feeding behavior evolved multiple times in Insecta lineages and it represents an excellent opportunity to study patterns of convergent molecular evolution regarding this habit. In insects the expansion of some gene families is linked with blood-feeding behavior, but a wide stud...
