Extended Data Figure 6: Integrative analysis of oil metabolism.

From: The sunflower genome provides insights into oil metabolism, flowering and Asterid evolution

Extended Data Figure 6

a, Whole-metabolic network (3,821 reactions and 475 pathways). Genes are coloured by expression levels in developing seeds. b, Co-expression network of oil metabolic pathway. Genes that co-localize with QTLs are coloured in orange. c, Sub-network with genes from b co-localizing with QTLs. Node size is proportional to Fst between lines cultivated for oil production and other domesticated lines. Genes with an Fst in the top 5% are coloured in dark orange. d, Mapping of candidate genes (orange genes from c) on the pathways of diacylglycerol and triacylglycerol biosynthesis. e, Mapping of candidate genes on the pathway of linoleate biosynthesis. f, Tree of a gene cluster including a candidate gene of the PAP2 superfamily, involved in the synthesis of fatty acid precursors (d). Athal, Arabidopsis thaliana; Brapa, Brassica rapa; Ccard, Cynara cardunculus; Hvulg, Hordeum vulgare; Osati, Oryza sativa; Ptrich, Populus trichocarpa.
