^aEMBL accession numbers are given for each copy and region of ago-1 and for each copy of dcr-1. Two numbers are given for those species where two alleles were obtained. A blank in a cell means that the sequence for that gene/region in that particular species was not obtained. ^bAphid species were classified following Remaudière and Remaudière (1997). ^cThe gene was named dcr-1a in the Acyrthosiphon species, where a dcr-1b sequence was found, and dcr-1 in the rest of species, where a second copy was not found. ^dSequence from an Aphis gossypii cDNA library (Webb, B.A. and Shelby, K.S., unpublished data). ^eSequences for which the complete targeted region could not be obtained.
