Minus indicates absence of tandem duplicates. Asterisks indicate significant enrichment compared to genome-wide tandem duplicate fraction based on fisher's exact test on count data (p-value threshold: 0.01). For absolute gene numbers and p-values, see S5 Table.

A C. Sativa, L. sativa and N. benthamiana and C. gynandraare excluded from this analysis due to technical reasons (see Materials & Methods section).

B Averages based on numbers of tandem and singleton genes, not on percentage values since gene counts in subsets are not equal.
