File_7_Lamiales_DIV_orthologs_up_to_3_kb_upstream File descriptions: 1. File_1_CYC_like_genes_nexus_alignment_and_MrBayes_block. Contains the alignment of eudicot CYC-like genes (in nexus format) that was used to generate the phylogenetic tree in this study. At the end of the alignment is the MrBayes block containing the parameters of the model used to generate the phylogenetic tree. 2. File_2_CYC_like_genes_CDS_in_fasta_format. Contains the protein-coding regions (CDS) of eudicot CYC-like genes (in fasta format) prior to alignment. 3. File_3_DIV_and_RAD_like_genes_nexus_alignment_and_MrBayes_block. Contains the alignment of RAD- and DIV-like genes (in nexus format) that was used to generate the phylogenetic tree in this study. At the end of the alignment is the MrBayes block containing the parameters of the model used to generate the phylogenetic tree. 4. File_4_DIV_and_RAD_like_genes_CDS_in_fasta_format. Contains the protein-coding regions (CDS) of RAD- and DIV-like genes (in fasta format) prior to alignment. 5. File_5_Core_eudicot_CYC2_lineage_orthologs_up_to_3_kb_usptream. Contains the genomic sequence (in fasta format) up to 3 kb upstream of the predicted or previously reported transcription start sites of core eudicot CYC2-lineage genes studied in this work. 6. File_6_Lamiales_RAD_orthologs_up_to_3_kb_upstream. Contains the genomic sequence (in fasta format) up to 3 kb upstream of the predicted or previously reported transcription start sites of Lamiales RAD orthologs studied in this work. 7. File_7_Lamiales_DIV_orthologs_up_to_3_kb_upstream. Contains the genomic sequence (in fasta format) up to 3 kb upstream of the predicted or previously reported transcription start sites of Lamiales DIV orthologs studied in this work.
