Node labels represent bootstrap values for 100 replicates. 12 3 Results of PUG analysis using the coalescence tree. Putative paralog pairs were estimated in the PUG software based on gene tree topologies. Nodes with bootstrap values less than 80 were collapsed. Total numbers of unique gene duplications are mapped to each branch suggesting five to six polyploid events. Nodes that have less than 10% of the highest number of unique duplications (3312) are not mapped. The basal node of the Lamiales suggests a polyploid event, but support for this event is potentially skewed by the shared gamma triplication shared between Lamiales and Solanum lycopersicum. 13 4 Summary of genome-wide transposon abundances ................ 14 5 Relationship of TE density and gene expression for M. luteus subgenomic regions Top: F1 hybrid, Middle: Natural allopolyploid, Bottom: Synthetic allopolyploid 15 6 Relationship of TE density and gene expression for M. guttatus subgenomic regions Top: F1 hybrid, Middle: Natural allopolyploid, Bottom: Synthetic allopolyploid 16 2 1 Methods 1.1 Genome assembly and annotation Genome assembly of M. luteus was performed using the ALLPATHS-LG assembler v45395 [1] with approximately 33x Illumina paired end (2x100bp) reads and a TruSeq mate-pair (5Kb insert) library. Additional gap closing was undertaken using GapCloser (v. 1.12, BGI). The assembly totaled 409Mb in 6,349 scaffolds with a scaffold N50/L50 of 283/439Kb, a contig N50 of 52Kb and 96 percent of bases called (IUPAC ambiguous bases converted to N). This is 60 percent of the total genome size (680Mb) anticipated by the assembler from the Kmer depth distribution. Genome completeness in terms of gene content was assessed using BUSCO [2] with default setting and a set of universal single-copy orthologs. The vast majority of BUSCO groups, 931 of 956 (97.4 percent), were identified in the M. luteus genome assembly with 837 duplicates. TEs were annotated using a combination of sequence and structure homology as well as de novo approaches (see TE annotation methods). The MAKER genome annotation pipeline was used to annotate the M. luteus and M. guttatus genome assemblies using SNAP, AUGUSTUS and Fgenesh gene prediction programs [3, 4, 5, 6]. Species-specific transcript assemblies as well as TAIR Arabidopsis thaliana and plant-specific Swis- sProt protein sequences were aligned to the repeat-masked genome assemblies and used as evidence to aid the gene prediction programs [7] [8]. Gene predictions with transcript, protein or protein domain support were retained as final high-quality gene predictions [9]. Assembled genome sequences and an- notation files (GFFs), including gene models, are deposited on CoGe (https://genomevolution.org/coge ; Genome IDs 22656 and 22665) hosted by National Science Foundation - CyVerse (http://www.cyverse.org/). All raw Illumina data, in fastq format, will be made available on SRA following acceptance (SRA#). 1.2 Whole genome alignments and phylogenetic analyses Pairwise genomic alignments between the M. luteus and M. guttatus genomes were made using Syn- Map [10] and QUOTA-ALIGN [11], and then filtered to identify syntenic orthologs between the two genomes and retained homeologs in M. luteus. Data for various members of the order Lamiales were downloaded from NCBI-SRA and combined with newly generated transcriptome data for M. peregri- nus and genomic data from M. luteus, M. guttatus (v.1.2) [12], and Solanum lycopersicum (ITAG2.3) [13] for phylogenetic analysis of retained duplicates. 1.3 RNA-sequencing and quantification of gene expression RNA-seq libraries were constructed using the TruSeq RNA kit (Illumina; San Diego, CA) from total RNA isolated from calyx, stem, and petals and then sequenced with single-end 100bp reads on an 3 Illumina HiSeq-2000 at the University of Missouri Sequencing Core for three tissue types for both M. guttatus and M. luteus. Illumina reads were quality filtered using NextGENe v2.3.3.1 (SoftGenetics; State College, PA), removing adapter sequences, reads with a median quality score of less than 22, trimmed reads at positions that had three consecutive bases with a quality score of less than 20, and any trimmed reads with a total length less than 40bp. This resulted in 87.9 percent of the reads passing the quality-score filter. Expression levels, in FPKM (fragments per kilobase per million reads), were determined for all genes in the M. guttatus and M. luteus genomes. Quality-filtered reads for each library were aligned to the respective genomes using NextGENe v2.3.3.1 and counting only uniquely mapped reads, using parameters (A. matching Requirement: >40 Bases and >99 percent, B. Allow Ambiguous Mapping: FALSE, and C. Rigorous Alignment: TRUE) resulting in the alignment of over 189.6 million reads to the M. guttatus and M. luteus genomes. 1.4 Whole genome methylation sequencing and analysis MethylC-seq libraries were prepared according to the following protocol [14], and were sequenced on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform with 150bp reads at the University of Georgia. Cutadapt v1.9 [15] was used to trim adapter sequences, and then Bowtie 1.1.0 [16] aligned reads to reference genomes as previously described in [17]. Only uniquely aligned reads were retained. Mitochondria sequence of M. guttatus (which is fully unmethylated) was used as control to calculate the sodium bisulfite reaction non-conversion rate of unmodified cytosines. For metaplots, both upstream and downstream regions were divided into 20 bins each of 50bp in length for a total 1 Kb in each direction. Gene and TE bodies were separated every 5 percent, for a total of 20 bins. Weighted methylation levels were computed for each bin as described previously [18]. 1.5 LRT to detect homeolog expression bias We defined homeolog expression bias (B) as 0 1 N j 1 X RP KM B = log A N @ 2 j A j=1 RP KMB where A and B are the two subgenomes being considered (e.g. M. luteus and M. guttatus). In this j j formula RP KMA and RP KMB are the observed expression levels of the homeologs normalized by gene length and total number of mapped reads and j is an index over the N tissues. This measure of homeolog expression bias can be computed for any homeolog pair with non-zero read counts (testable homeolog pairs). For the analysis of our RNA-seq data, we developed a likelihood ratio test involving three nested 4 hypotheses to identify cases of homeolog expression bias that do not involve tissue specific expression differences. The null hypothesis (H0) is that both homeologs are expressed at equal levels (ratio of homeolog-1 to homeolog-2 equals 1 for all three tissues). The first alternative hypothesis (H1) is that homeologs are expressed at different levels, but similar ratios, across all three tissue types. The second alternative hypothesis (H2) is that homeologs are expressed at different levels and at different ratios across all three tissues. A brief description of our likelihood ratio test for homeolog expression bias that does not involve tissue specific expression differences follows. Denote the true but unknown expression levels (per kilobase of A B coding DNA sequence) of homeologs A and B as Λj and Λj . The expected number of reads in tissue A B j (λj and λj ) are A A A λj = Λj k (1) B B B λj = Λj k (2) A B B A where k and k are the transcript lengths of homeologs A and B, respectively. Define αj = Λj =Λj to be the `expression scaling factor' of A compared to B in tissue j, and K = kB=kA to be the ratio of A B the homeologs' transcript lengths. In that case, the expected number of reads, λj and λj , are related by B A λj = αjKλj (3) where K = kB=kA is a known quantity. Because we are working with single replicates (one observation for each homeolog pair in each tissue), A B we model the observed read counts (Xj and Xj ) as Poisson distributed random variables with A B parameters λj and λj respectively.

  • Sunol Wildflower Guide
    Sunol Wildflowers A photographic guide to showy wildflowers of Sunol Regional Wilderness Sorted by Flower Color Photographs by Wilde Legard Botanist, East Bay Regional Park District Revision: February 23, 2007 More than 2,000 species of native and naturalized plants grow wild in the San Francisco Bay Area. Most are very difficult to identify without the help of good illustrations. This is designed to be a simple, color photo guide to help you identify some of these plants. The selection of showy wildflowers displayed in this guide is by no means complete. The intent is to expand the quality and quantity of photos over time. The revision date is shown on the cover and on the header of each photo page. A comprehensive plant list for this area (including the many species not found in this publication) can be downloaded at the East Bay Regional Park District’s wild plant download page at: http://www.ebparks.org. This guide is published electronically in Adobe Acrobat® format to accommodate these planned updates. You have permission to freely download and distribute, and print this pdf for individual use. You are not allowed to sell the electronic or printed versions. In this version of the guide, only showy wildflowers are included. These wildflowers are sorted first by flower color, then by plant family (similar flower types), and finally by scientific name within each family. Under each photograph are four lines of information, based on the current standard wild plant reference for California: The Jepson Manual: Higher Plants of California, 1993. Common Name These non-standard names are based on Jepson and other local references.

  • Outline of Angiosperm Phylogeny
    Outline of angiosperm phylogeny: orders, families, and representative genera with emphasis on Oregon native plants Priscilla Spears December 2013 The following listing gives an introduction to the phylogenetic classification of the flowering plants that has emerged in recent decades, and which is based on nucleic acid sequences as well as morphological and developmental data. This listing emphasizes temperate families of the Northern Hemisphere and is meant as an overview with examples of Oregon native plants. It includes many exotic genera that are grown in Oregon as ornamentals plus other plants of interest worldwide. The genera that are Oregon natives are printed in a blue font. Genera that are exotics are shown in black, however genera in blue may also contain non-native species. Names separated by a slash are alternatives or else the nomenclature is in flux. When several genera have the same common name, the names are separated by commas. The order of the family names is from the linear listing of families in the APG III report. For further information, see the references on the last page. Basal Angiosperms (ANITA grade) Amborellales Amborellaceae, sole family, the earliest branch of flowering plants, a shrub native to New Caledonia – Amborella Nymphaeales Hydatellaceae – aquatics from Australasia, previously classified as a grass Cabombaceae (water shield – Brasenia, fanwort – Cabomba) Nymphaeaceae (water lilies – Nymphaea; pond lilies – Nuphar) Austrobaileyales Schisandraceae (wild sarsaparilla, star vine – Schisandra; Japanese

  • Evidence for Holobaraminic Status of the Verbenaceae (Verbena Family)
    OPEN ACCESS JCTS Report SERIES B Evidence for Holobaraminic Status of the Verbenaceae (Verbena Family) R.W. Sanders Core Academy of Science, Dayton, TN 37321 Abstract The baraminic status of the Verbenaceae s. str. was investigated using baraminic distance correlations, bootstrap analysis, and multidimensional scaling coordinates. Data were obtained from personal observations and the literature for 80 characters in 25 genera of the Verbenaceae and 19 genera representing 8 near and far outgroup families. Results showed continuity among members of the Verbenaceae and discontinuity of the Verbenaceae from all remaining families, supporting the holobaraminic status of the family. The hypothesis that baramins approximate taxonomic families is corroborated, as is the distinction of the Verbenaceae s. str. from the Lamiaceae, including the subfamilies that have been transferred from the Verbenaceae s. l. to the Lamiaceae by recent cladistic and molecular analyses.

  • Inheritance of Green Variegation and Other New Variants of Collinsia Heterophylla
    Transactions of the Illinois State Academy of Science received 3/17/97 (1998), Volume 91, 1 and 2, pp.19-31 accepted 6/15/97 Inheritance of Green Variegation and Other New Variants of Collinsia heterophylla J. Goršič Elmhurst College Department of Biology Elmhurst, IL 60126-3296 ABSTRACT Six new genetic variants, extending the described genome of Collinsia heterophylla Buist. (2N=14) to over one hundred gene loci, are: (1) carpophyllous, cp, with fused leaf pairs terminating the growth of main axis; (2) umbellate, la, with tetra- and/or hexamerous whorls of vegetative leaves and an umbellate inflorescence of 6-30 flowers; (3) dwarf, dw, with a 3.5-7 cm long stem; (4) fringed, fr, with deeply cut leaf margin; (5) semidominant mottling, M, with leaves densely sprinkled with whitish streaks; (6) green variegation, vag, with light-green and dark-green sectored leaves, controlled by a reversible recessive nuclear gene transferable to the offspring through male and female gametes. In addition, two new alleles of the vao (orange variegation) locus are reported: (1) vaog allele (in stable and reversible form), and (2) vaoa, a nonreversible allele producing nearly white (alba) cotyledons and leaves or orange cotyledons and leaves with a white margin. Finally, an additional allele, zc, of the toothless (z, zahnlos) locus, has been identified, causing, in homozygotes, complete adaxial fusion (clasping) of cotyledons thus precluding stem formation. INTRODUCTION Ongoing efforts to find more genetic variants of Collinsia heterophylla Buist. (Scrophulariaceae), to be applied in studies of genetic homologies between 21 species of the genus Collinsia Nutt., have been rewarded by encountering nine new mutants (in cultures grown in a greenhouse without use of mutagens).
