Heterokaryosis in B. lactucae. Example alternative allele frequency plots of SNPs detected in four field isolates of B. lactucae. a A unimodal distribution with a 1:1 ratio of reads supporting alternative and reference alleles seen in the homokaryotic SF5 isolate. b A trimodal distribution with peaks at 1:1, 1:3, and 3:1 ratios of reads supporting alternate alleles in the heterokaryotic C82P24 isolate, consistent with two nuclei being present in approximately equal proportions. c A bimodal distribution with two peaks at 1:2 and 2:1 ratios of reads supporting alternative alleles observed in the heterokaryotic isolate C04O1017, consistent with three nuclei being present in equal proportions. d The complex distribution observed in isolate C15C1689, consistent with an uneven mixture of multiple nuclei in a heterokaryotic isolate. Allele distributions of 31 isolates are shown in Supplementary Fig. 4. Sequencing statistics for these isolates are provided in Supplementary Table 8
