This dataset contains Supplementary Information for Chapter 5 - "Insect Evolutionary Developmental Transcriptomics - Evolutionary Divergence Drives Shifts in Developmental Transcriptomic Conservation" of the dissertation titled "Insect Evo-Devo: Exploring Developmental Transcriptomes and Evolutionary Conservation Across Insect Phylogeny". In this study, we integrated comprehensive chronological embryogenic gene expression data from five species representing key evolutionary lineages across the insect phylogeny. The selected species include the ametabolous Thermobia domestica (Zygentoma), the hemimetabolous Ischnura elegans (Odonata) and Ephemera vulgata (Ephemeroptera), and the holometabolous Nasonia vitripennis (Hymenoptera) and D. melanogaster (Diptera). Based on these data, we identified shared orthogroups to correlate gene expression data and reveal interspecies developmental timepoint relationships. Interspecies gene expression correlations were used as a proxy for evolutionary conservation. Please refer to the README.md and codebook.csv files for an in-depth description of the contents.
