  1. (a) The average number of NLR genes and (b) LRR-RLK genes in significantly elevated diversity windows and all other windows are given, along with the significance of the difference in average number of genes per window based on a randomisation test. These averages are based on numbers of genes present in individual smoothed windows defined by Stacks and significance of the difference is denoted as *** p < 0.0001, ** p < 0.001, * p < 0.01, ns = p > 0.05
  2. a NA-S = N. American selfing, EU-N = Northern European (Sweden, Iceland and Norway), NA-O = N. American outcrossing, ALL-O = all outcrossing samples i.e. without NA-S samples
