	Figure 1. SlitOr5 is highly expressed in males but does not belong to the pheromone receptor clade.(A) Expression levels of SlitOr5 in adult male and female antennae of S. littoralis, as measured by real-time qPCR. Expression levels have been normalized to the expression of SlitRpl13. Plotted values represent the mean normalized expression values ± SEM (n = 3). Raw results are available in Figure 1—source data 1. (B) Unrooted maximum likelihood phylogeny of lepidopteran ORs, based on 506 amino acid sequences from nine species, each belonging to a different superfamily. The position of SlitOR5 and of receptors for type 0, type I and type II pheromone compounds is highlighted. Circles on the nodes indicate the distinct paralogous OR lineages, supported by a transfer bootstrap expectation (TBE) >0.9. All the PR-containing lineages grouped within a large clade (highlighted in grey) also supported by the bootstrap analysis. The sequence alignment file is available in Figure 1—source data 2.

	Figure 3. Response to the major pheromone component is abolished in SlitOr5 mutants.(A) Location of the 10 bp deletion induced in the first exon of the SlitOr5 gene by the CRISPR/Cas9 system. The sequence complementary to the RNA guide is indicated in blue, and the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) in red. The frameshift created in the SlitOr5 open-reading frame (ORF) induced a premature stop codon.

Plotted values represent the normalized mean response ± SEM (response to the solvent was subtracted). ***p<0.001, significantly different from the response of the other genotypes; n.s.: not significantly different (one-way ANOVA, followed by a Tukey’s post hoc test).

	Figure 4. SlitOR5 may define a novel lineage of candidate pheromone receptors in Lepidoptera.Maximum likelihood phylogeny of the lepidopteran OR clade that includes all the paralogous lineages containing pheromone receptors. 360 sequences from 34 lepidopteran species were included. Functional and expression data shown on the figure have been compiled from the literature (Supplementary file 2). Branch colors indicate OR function, when characterized: PRs for type I pheromones are depicted in red, those for type II pheromones in blue and those for type 0 pheromones in orange. ORs tuned to plant volatiles are depicted in green. Symbols at the edge indicate expression data: male-biased ORs are highlighted with black squares and female-biased ORs with black dots. Circles on the nodes indicate the distinct paralogous OR lineages. Support values on basal nodes are transfer bootstrap expectation (TBE) values. The tree has been rooted using an outgroup as identified in the lepidopteran OR phylogeny shown in Figure 1. The scale bar indicates the expected number of amino acid substitutions per site. The sequence alignment file is available in Figure 4—source data 1. Figure 4—source data 1. Alignment of amino acid sequences used to build the phylogeny (FASTA format).
