Dotplot of Bothriochloa laguroides vs. Paspalum vaginatum

Like dotplots shown in Figure 3 of the main text, this shows syntenic blocks in Bothriochloa laguroides along the y-axis, vs P. vaginatum on the x-axis. As Bothriochloa laguroides is a hexaploid with an allelic assembly, we expect 6 paths for any x-axis position.

Fractionation of Bothriochloa laguroides

Like plots shown in Figure 4 of the main text, this shows proportion of retained genes in Bothriochloa laguroides along the y-axis, vs P. vaginatum gene index on the x-axis. As Bothriochloa laguroides is a hexaploid with an allelic assembly, we expect 6 lines, two for each subgenome.
