FIGURE 4

Different scenarios tested based on competing hypotheses of the origin of RNS. A phylogenetic tree of the NFC and its outgroup. The branches a through d designate the base of the NFC (a), C. thyrsiflorus (b), D. glomerata (c), and the legumes (d), respectively. The table below indicates the three hypothesis-based scenarios and where each scenario expects a change in dN/dS in the phylogeny. Species without a family label each belong to a separate family: A. thaliana (Brassicaceae), M. esculenta (Euphorbiaceae), P. trichocarpa (Salicaceae), C. thyrsiflorus (Rhamnaceae), C. sativus (Cucurbitaceae), and D. glomerata (Datiscaceae). Mal., Malpighiales. The topology of the tree is based on Angiosperm Phylogeny Group III (APG, 2009).
