1 Supplementary text 1. 2 This supplementary text provides detailed comments on the patterns of amplification 3 and recombination otherwised summarized in Tables S2 and S3. 4 In B. latastii (LL), two microsatellites did not amplify (NA) and four were 5 monomorphic (M); out of the 23 polymorphic markers, 21 could be assigned to seven 6 linkage groups, comprising respectively four (LG1, LG2, LG4), three (LG6) or two 7 markers (LG3, LG5, LG7). Recombination rates per linkage group were significantly 8 lower in males (average 0.10, range 0.01 - 0.24) than in females (average 0.40, range 9 0.22 - 0.50; Wilcoxon test, W = 501, P < 0.001; Table S3). Accordingly, map lengths 10 ranged 1.0 - 44.1 cM in males and 23.9 - 191.8 cM in females (Fig. S1). Six microsatellite 11 markers did not meet Hardy-Weinberg expectations (BaC123, BaD5, BlB3, BlB7, BlD113, 12 BlD114). 13 In B. turanensis (TT), three markers did not amplify and seven were 14 monomorphic; out of the 19 polymorphic ones, 12 could be assigned to four linkage 15 groups, comprising respectively five (LG1), three (LG2) and two markers (LG3, LG7). 16 Average recombination rates were significantly lower in males (grand mean 0.02, range 17 0 - 0.04) than in females (grand mean 0.34, range 0.19 - 0.42; Wilcoxon test, W = 144, P < 18 0.001; Table 3). Accordingly, map lengths were shorter in males (range 0 - 11.2 cM) than 19 in females (range 20.1 - 211.3 cM; Fig. S1). All markers met Hardy-Weinberg 20 expectations. 21 22 In B. shaartusiensis (SS), four markers did not amplify and five were 23 monomorphic; out of the 20 polymorphic markers, ten could be assigned to three 24 linkage groups, comprising respectively five (LG1), three (LG2) and two loci (LG3). 25 Average recombination rates were significantly lower in males (grand mean 0.05, range 26 0.04 - 0.05) than in females (grand mean 0.46, range 0.40 - 0.49; Wilcoxon test, W = 189, 27 P < 0.001; Table S3). Accordingly, map lengths were shorter in males (range 4.7 - 9.6 cM) 28 than in females (range 87.0 - 174.2 cM; Figure 1). Four markers differed significantly 29 from Hardy-Weinber equilibrium (BaC115, BaC123, BlD103, BlD11). 30 31 In B. baturae (BmBpBp), 17 markers amplified on both the Bm and Bp sets, nine 32 only on the Bp sets, and three only on the Bm set. Linkage groups differed between 33 families, which clustered into two groups. In group 1 (four families: B1, B2, B3, B5; Table 34 1), all 26 markers on Bp were polymorphic, 22 of which could be assigned to six linkage 35 groups, comprising respectively six (LG1), five (LG2), four (LG3), three (LG4) and two 36 markers (LG5 and LG6). Recombination rate per linkage group differed significantly 37 between sexes with an average of 0.06 in males (range 0.02 - 0.09) and 0.38 in females 38 (range 0.29 - 0.48; Wilcoxon test, W = 419, P < 0.001; Table S3), with corresponding map 39 lengths 6.8 - 25.3 cM in males and 40.2 - 265.7 cM in females. In group 2 (two families: 40 B4, B6), 18 loci only were polymorphic, and could be assigned to five linkage groups 41 made of six (LG2), four (LG6), three (LG1, LG4) and two markers (LG3). Average 42 recombination rate per linkage group was significantly lower in males (grand mean: 43 0.09, range 0.03 - 0.17) than in females (grand mean: 0.42, range 0.32 - 0.50; Wilcoxon 44 test, W = 188, P < 0.001; Table S3). Corresponding map lengths ranged 3.5 - 44.6 cM in 45 males and 100 - 209 cM in females. Within the paternal Bp subgenome, four 46 microsatellites markers did not meet Hardy-Weinberg expectations (BaC224, BaD11, 47 BaD124, BlD115). 48 49 In B. pewzowi (PmPmPpPp), four markers (BaC111, BaC212 BaD5, BlD114) could 50 not be assigned to either the Pp or the Pm set, in addition to the few ones that did not 51 amplify or were monomorphic. Out of the 18 polymorphic markers assigned to the Pp 52 genome, 14 could be grouped into five linkage groups comprising four (LG1, LG2) or two 53 markers (LG3, LG4, LG5), while four markers remained unlinked. Recombination rates 54 per linkage group were significantly lower in males (average 0.05, range 0.02 - 0.06) 55 than in females (average 0.40, range 0.23 - 0.50; Wilcoxon test, W = 108, P < 0.001; Table 56 S3), with shorter map lengths (range 2 - 8.5 cM in males versus 41.6 - 126.9 cM in 57 females). Out of the 16 polymorphic markers assigned to the Pm genome, 15 could be 58 grouped into five linkage groups comprising four (LG1, LG2), three (LG4) and two 59 markers (LG4 and LG7), and one remained unlinked. Average recombination rates per 60 linkage groups was significantly lower in males (0.16, range 0.04 - 0.36) than in females 61 (0.36, range 0.21 - 0.50; Wilcoxon test, W = 171, P < 0.001; Table S3), with 62 corresponding map lengths 7.3 - 45.8 cM in males and 23.3 - 207.3 cM in females. Six 63 markers within maternal Pm subgenome (BaC224, BlB3, BlD102, BlD115, BlD2, BlD214) 64 and 13 microsatellite markers within paternal Pp subgenome (BaC101, BaC105, BaC111, 65 Ba C115, BaC223, BaC224, BaD11, BaD124, BlB7, BlD103, BlD114, BlD118, BlD201) 66 deviated significantly from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium.
