Apparent expansion of triglyceride lipases among entomophthoralean insect–pathogenic fungi. A Across the kingdom fungi, individual species vary greatly in the number of triglyceride lipase genes in the genome. Gray boxes denote entomopathogenic fungi within Zoopagomycota and Ascomycota. Heatmap shows the number of triglyceride lipase genes in the genome with protein family domain (PFAM) PF01764 (Lipase 3) per fungal species. *Data for E. muscae and P. formicae are not from genomic data but transcriptomic data (Małagocka et al. 2015; De Fine Licht et al. 2017) and all other genomic data are from the Joint Genome Institute Mycocosm database (Grigoriev et al. 2014). B Triglyceride lipases are abundant in insect–pathogenic fungi within Zoopagomycotina and used when the fungi penetrate the insect cuticle and during consumption of internal fat body tissue
