Lettuce and globe artichoke speciation is described with a Ks peak of ~0.55, while ancestral common genome duplication predating the Euasterids II radiation is described by a Ks ~ 0.78 for globe artichoke and ~0.87 for lettuce prior to heterogeneity rate correction, confirming that no WGD occurred after speciation of Chicoriae and Cardueae.
