Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) detection was carried out based on a method adapted from [66] (link). Raw filtered reads were mapped back to the 454AllContigs.fna file from the Newbler assembler output, using Roche's gsReference Mapper (v2.8) (Seed step  = 12, seed length  = 16, seed count 1, Hit-per-seed limit  = 70; minimum overlap length  = 40, minimum overlap identity  = 90, alignment ID score  = 2, alignment differences score  = −3). Custom python scripts were written that filtered the resulting 454AllDiffs.txt file for single nucleotide differences. We performed this at three threshold levels: Low stringency SNPs had a nucleotide depth greater than eight, and a minority allele frequency (MAF) greater than 15%; medium stringency SNPs had a nucleotide depth greater than 12, and a MAF greater than 20%; high stringency SNPs had a nucleotide depth greater than 15 and a MAF greater than 25%. In additional, all putative SNPs had to be flanked by at least 50 bp of sequence, and were not part of a single nucleotide repeat longer than two nucleotides.

Exome Sequencing of NR1D1 Gene

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The sequencing results were aligned to genomic reference sequences and called variants were compared with the reference genome using the 454 integrated software (GS Reference Mapper, Roche). We searched for mutations in the exons of NR1D1. A sample was considered mutated if a mutation was present in a minimum of approximately 50% of the confident reads. Genomic reference sequences were ascertained by the NCBI website (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/). Each coding polymorphism was compared to the dbSNP (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/snp/) and the corresponding reference (rs) number was assigned to previously identified polymorphisms. Japanese mutations were also ascertained by the human database website (http://biosciencedbc.jp/en/) of the National Bioscience Database Center of the Japan Science and Technology Agency. The patients, their siblings and parents were tested for mutations in all exons of NR1D1. The hypothesized effects of the mutations on respective protein functions were analyzed using prediction tools PolyPhen-2 (http://genetics.bwh.harvard.edu/pph2/), SIFT (http://sift.jcvi.org/) and Mutation Taster (http://www.mutationtaster.org/).

Estimating Intraspecific Genetic Diversity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To identify within species polymorphism and estimate pN/pS (within species equivalent of dN/dS), 454 reads from the pooled multiple-population C. americanum sample were mapped to the assembled contigs from the VA sample using Roche’s GS Reference Mapper v2.5.3. The mapped reads had an average single copy coverage depth of 25×. A Perl script was written to use annotated gene locations and SNP information from the “HCDiff” mapping file to extract all high-confidence SNPs and identify them as genic/intergenic, exonic/intronic, and non-synonymous/synonymous (Additional file 3). Total numbers of non-synonymous and synonymous SNPs were tallied for each set of concatenated or individual genes, using the same concatenation groupings as used when estimating dN/dS. To estimate pN, pS, and the pN/pS ratio, the nonsynonymous and synonymous polymorphism counts were divided by the number of nonsynonymous and synonymous sites determined by PAML in our dN/dS analyses.

Analysis of Microbial Community Composition

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Raw pyrosequencing data was processed by using the default on-rig procedures from 454/Roche. Filter-passing reads were used in the subsequent analyses for each of the pyrosequencing libraries. Sequence reads were de-multiplexed and processed to generate operational taxonomic units (OTU) with the microbial Profiling Using Metagenomic Assembly (mPUMA) pipeline [19 (link)] using Trinity for OTU assembly. Processing of sequence reads by mPUMA includes identification and removal of amplification primer sequences and identification of putative chimeras using the C3 chimera checker. Watered-BLAST [20 (link)] comparison to the cpnDB_nr reference database (version 20130321, downloaded from http://www.cpndb.ca) [21 (link)] was used to identify each OTU. Sequences identified as non-target were reference mapped (GS Reference Mapper, Roche, Bradford, CT, USA) to the pig genome (Sus scrofa, Genbank Accession AEMK01000000) to determine the amount of non-target amplification of pig genome origin. Coverage and Shannon diversity for each library was calculated using Mothur [22 (link)]. Principal coordinates analysis of jackknifed Bray–Curtis dissimilarity matrices was performed in QIIME [23 (link)].

Exon Array Analysis and Sequencing Protocols

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For the exon array analysis, the robust microarray analysis (RMA) algorithm was used for background correction, intra- and intermicroarray normalization, and expression signal calculation [19 (link)]. Significance analysis of microarray (SAM) [20 (link)] was used to calculate significant differential expression. All bioinformatic analyses were performed with the statistical program R, as previously described [21 (link)].
The expression data from quantitative SYBR Green PCR were not normally distributed, so nonparametric tests were used. Expression levels of TET2 in the different groups were analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test with a two-tailed value of P < 0.05 taken as indicating statistical significance. All tests were performed using SPSS v19.0.
Sequencing data from the Sequence Capture experiments were analyzed using GS Run Browser and GS Reference Mapper software, version 2.0.01 (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany). All putative variants were compared with published single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data (dbSNP build 130).
Amplicon deep-sequencing data were generated using GS FLX Sequencer Instrument, version 2.3, and analyzed with GS Amplicon Variant Analyzer, version 2.3 (Roche Diagnostics). The results were further processed and visualized following a previously described pipeline [17 (link)].

Genome Sequencing and Assembly of Wheat Rust Pathotypes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Paired end libraries from the genomic DNA of all the three pathotypes were separately prepared with 100 bp paired end sequenced data using Hiseq1000 (Illumina) automated sequencer (Illumina, Inc., San Diego, CA, USA). The genome sequences (100 bp on average) were aligned against the P. striiformis pathotype 78-1 (Puccinia Group Sequencing Project, Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT (http//www.broadinstitute.org)15 , using ABySS software. Reference-based assembly was performed for the processed data by GS Reference Mapper (Roche) with default parameters (minimum read length = 20 bp, minimum overlap length = 40 bp, minimum overlap identity = 90%, alignment identity score = 2, and all contig threshold = 100) with the genome sequence of P. striiformis pathotype 78-1 as the reference. Raw reads of pathotype 31, K, and 46S 119 were also mapped against the assembled data of self and other two pathotypes. The quality of the assembly was carried out by QUAST 3.2 software tool (Fig. S1, Table S1). Furthermore, the de novo assembly of the unassembled reads as well as the alignment of the raw reads of each pathotype as a whole and individually with the assembled data of their respective partner was performed using CLC Genomics Workbench 7.0. with default parameters (minimum contig = 100 bp, 23 K-mer, similarity fraction = 80% and length fraction = 50%).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Genomic DNA of B. glumae LU8093 was isolated with the Masterpure DNA purification Kit (Epicentre, Madison, USA). Genome sequencing was carried out with a hybrid approach using the 454 GS-FLX system with Titanium chemistry (Roche Life Science, Mannheim, Germany) and the Genome Analyzer IIx (Illumina, San Diego, CA). Sequencing results in 437,363 and 3,998,786 reads, respectively. In order to identify SNPs, sequence reads of LU8093 were mapped onto the B. glumae PG1 reference genome (Voget et al. 2015 (link)) with the GS Reference Mapper (Roche Life Science, Mannheim, Germany). All candidate SNP positions were then manually verified by PCR-amplifying corresponding genome regions and re-sequencing these fragments. Manual editing steps were performed using the GAP4 software package v4.6 (Staden 1996 (link)).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The libraries were pooled in equimolar amounts and combined with capture beads at a ratio of two molecules from each DNA library per capture bead. The pooled DNA was then amplified with emulsion PCR (emPCR). The bead-attached DNAs were denatured, eluted, and quantified with the provided bead counter. All were performed according to the GS Junior Titanium Series emPCR (Lib-L) Manual (June 2012).
A total of 500,000 enriched DNA beads were mixed with Packing Beads. Then, the Pico Titer Plate was sequentially loaded with Prelayer Beads, DNA-Packing Beads, Postlayer Beads, and PPiase Beads. Finally, the Pico Titer Plate was mounted in the 454 GS Junior Sequencer, and the program was run in full processing mode for shotgun sequencing, according to the GS Junior Titanium Series Sequencing Method Manual (June 2012). The resulting reads were aligned, and variants were compared to the reference genome with the 454 integrated software (GS Reference Mapper; Roche, Pleasanton, CA, USA).
