Effect of presence of repetitive element adjacents to promoter of orthologs on gene expression in planta compared to in axenic culture. In planta upregulation ratio (Log2(in planta FPKM/in vitro FPKM)) calculated from RNA-seq data for orthologs in L. maculans ‘brassicae’ (Lmb) and L. biglobosa ‘canadensis’ (Lbc) during growth in planta and in vitro. Ortholog pairs were categorised according to the presence or absence of repeat elements adjacent to the promoter region of both genes. Positive up-regulation ratios indicate higher expression during growth in planta. The categories were: no Lmb no Lbc (n = 6959), no Lmb yes Lbc (n = 60), yes Lmb no Lbc (n = 382), yes Lmb yes Lbc (n = 14).
