Figure 1. Variation in gene clustering, GD, and HGT across the fungal phylogeny.

Figure 1

From top to bottom, the four box-and-whisker plots correspond to number of ECgenes per genome, percentage of clustered ECgenes per genome, percentage of horizontally transferred ECgenes per genome, and percentage of duplicated ECgenes per genome. The bottom and top of each box first and third quartiles (the 25th and 75th percentiles), respectively. The lower whisker extends from the box bottom to the lowest value within 1.5 * IQR (Inter-Quartile Range, defined as the distance between the first and third quartiles) of the first quartile. The upper whisker extends from the box top to the highest value that is within 1.5 * IQR of the third quartile. Data beyond the end of the whiskers are outliers and plotted as points. Numbers in parentheses after the lineages' names indicate numbers of genomes in each lineage; the numbers of genomes used from each lineage are also reflected by the widths of their branch triangles on the fungal species phylogeny shown at the bottom of the figure.
