Premature termination codons (PTCs) introduced by intron retention (IR) in three Coccinellini species. (A) Distribution of PTCs along the transcripts in Propylea japonica (red), Coccinella septempunctata (green), and Harmonia axyridis (blue), respectively. In each panel, each bar represents a location interval of 10% of the length of transcripts, and the farther to the right, the closer to the end of transcripts. (B-D) Featured Gene Ontology (GO) terms enriched for less intron-inclusive genes in P. japonica (B), C. septempunctata (C), and Harmonia axyridis (D) when feeding on alternative diet (mealybugs)
