By considering all these factors, the genetic make-up was initiated through a large insect genome project to fuel detailed characterizations (i.e., i5K insect genomes). The single-copy genes from the given genomes were subjected to Bayesian evolutionary analysis sampling trees (BEAST), phylogenetic tree reconstruction method, to assess evolutionary time and similarity position among the given genomes (Suchard et al., [23]). A total of 15,667 (66.52%) genes are known to have homologous sequences in GenBank, and 10,844 (i.e., 46.04%) genes also have their gene ontology descriptions (Table 1D and Figure 1C).
