a Number of genes for ADSs, FADs, and KASs in the seven Asteraceae species and 22 other land plants. ****P < 0.0001, as determined by two-tailed Student’s t test. The number (n) of data point for each group was shown below the x-axes. Data are presented as mean values +/−SD. b Simplified phylogenetic trees of ADSs, FADs, and KASs in the seven Asteraceae species, Sc. taccada, and 21 representative land plants. The genes from the Asteraceae species and Sc. taccada are marked with different colors and stars as indicated, and clades from other species are collapsed. c Microsynteny visualization of typical ADSs, FADs, and KASs gene expansion patterns in the representative Asteraceae species and Sc. taccada. Source data are provided as a Source data file.
