Extended Data Fig. 7: Test for similarities in fraction of receptor proteins and phylogenetic relationships.

From: Concerted expansion and contraction of immune receptor gene repertoires in plant genomes

Extended Data Fig. 7

To test whether the receptor percentage (%) found per species correlate with phylogenetic relationship, %receptor and the species phylogenetic tree were converted to distance matrices and tested for correlation with the Mantel tests. a, Mantel test for the correlation between distance matrices obtained for % receptor family proteins in 350 species. Histogram shows the correlation coefficient between % PRRs and % NB-ARCs. b, Partial Mantel test for the correlation between distance matrices obtained for % receptor in 238 species, taking phylogenetic distances into account. Histogram shows the correlation coefficient between % PRRs and % NB-ARCs. c, Mantel test for the correlation between distance matrices obtained for %receptors and phylogenic distances in 238 species. Histogram shows the correlation coefficient between %receptor and phylogeny. One-sided test of significance was performed. P-values were corrected for multiple testing to reflect false discovery rates (FDRs, for details please refer to methods). Summary of statistical analyses are provided in Supplementary Table 4.
