From: Large-scale gene losses underlie the genome evolution of parasitic plant Cuscuta australis
Morphological traits and genome structure of C. australis. a Photographs of C. australis seed (1), seedling (2), vines twining around the wild tomato Solanum pennellii (3 & 4; partial haustoria can be seen in 3), flowers (5), and seed capsules (6). b Phylogenetic tree generated from genome-wide one-to-one orthogroups (bootstrap values for all clades are 100%). c Circos plot of a set of syntenic genome segments of C. australis, Japanese morning glory, and coffee. Numbers besides terminals of each karyotype denote the start and end of chromosome segment or contigs with unit of Mb. d Numbers of gene clades (shown on top of the trees) supporting different hypotheses on the order of speciation and whole-genome triplication event in the Cuscuta and Ipomoea lineage
