A comparison of gene repertoire among ecdysozoans, with D. melanogaster representing Arthropoda, and C. elegans representing Nematoda. Number of shared genes are shown as bar graphs at three different BLASTX thresholds (1e-5, 1e-25, 1e-50), and large coloured circles below the bars indicate the group of organisms where the genes are conserved. For example, the left most column indicates a conservation pattern among all four species tested, and the second column from the left indicates conservation in H. exemplaris, R. varieornatus, and in D. melanogaster, but not in C. elegans. Highest conservation at 1e-25 and 1e-50 are among tardigrades, due to their closer phylogenetic affinities
