<p>Single copy genes are common across angiosperm genomes. With the sufficiently high quality sequenced genomes, the identification of large-scale single copy genes among multiple species is possible. Although some characteristics have been reported, our study provides novel insights into single copy genes.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Results</title>
<p>We identified single copy genes across 29 angiosperm genomes. A significant negative correlation was found between the number of duplicate blocks and the number of single copy genes. We found that a considerable number of single copy genes are located in organelles, showing a preference for binding and catalytic activity. The analysis of effective number of codons (Nc) illustrates that single copy genes have a stronger codon bias than non-single copy genes in eudicots. The relative high expression level of single copy genes was partially confirmed by the RNA-seq data, rather than the Codon Adaptation Index (CAI). Unlike in most other species, a strongly negatively correlation occurs between Nc and GC3 among single copy genes in grass genomes. When compared to all non-single copy genes, single copy genes indicate more conservation (as indicated by <italic>Ka</italic>
and <italic>Ks</italic>
values). But our alternative splicing (AS) results reveal that selective constraints are weaker in single copy genes than in low copy family genes (1–10 in-paralogs) and stronger than high copy family genes (>10 in-paralogs). Using concatenated shared single copy genes, we obtained a well-resolved phylogenetic tree. With the addition of intron sequences, the branch support is improved, but striking incongruences are also evident. Therefore, it is noteworthy that inclusion of intron sequences seems more appropriate for the phylogenetic reconstruction at lower taxonomic levels.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Conclusions</title>
<p>Our analysis provides insight into the evolutionary characteristics of single copy genes across 29 angiosperm genomes. The results suggest that there are key differences in evolutionary constraints between single copy genes and non-single copy genes. And to some extent, these evolutionary constraints show some species-specific differences, especially between eudicots and monocots. Our preliminary evidence also suggests that the concatenated shared single copy genes are well suited for use in resolving phylogenetic relationships.</p>

<abstract id="Abs1"><sec><title>Background</title>
<p>Single copy genes are common across angiosperm genomes. With the sufficiently high quality sequenced genomes, the identification of large-scale single copy genes among multiple species is possible. Although some characteristics have been reported, our study provides novel insights into single copy genes.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Results</title>
<p>We identified single copy genes across 29 angiosperm genomes. A significant negative correlation was found between the number of duplicate blocks and the number of single copy genes. We found that a considerable number of single copy genes are located in organelles, showing a preference for binding and catalytic activity. The analysis of effective number of codons (Nc) illustrates that single copy genes have a stronger codon bias than non-single copy genes in eudicots. The relative high expression level of single copy genes was partially confirmed by the RNA-seq data, rather than the Codon Adaptation Index (CAI). Unlike in most other species, a strongly negatively correlation occurs between Nc and GC3 among single copy genes in grass genomes. When compared to all non-single copy genes, single copy genes indicate more conservation (as indicated by <italic>Ka</italic>
and <italic>Ks</italic>
values). But our alternative splicing (AS) results reveal that selective constraints are weaker in single copy genes than in low copy family genes (1–10 in-paralogs) and stronger than high copy family genes (>10 in-paralogs). Using concatenated shared single copy genes, we obtained a well-resolved phylogenetic tree. With the addition of intron sequences, the branch support is improved, but striking incongruences are also evident. Therefore, it is noteworthy that inclusion of intron sequences seems more appropriate for the phylogenetic reconstruction at lower taxonomic levels.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Conclusions</title>
<p>Our analysis provides insight into the evolutionary characteristics of single copy genes across 29 angiosperm genomes. The results suggest that there are key differences in evolutionary constraints between single copy genes and non-single copy genes. And to some extent, these evolutionary constraints show some species-specific differences, especially between eudicots and monocots. Our preliminary evidence also suggests that the concatenated shared single copy genes are well suited for use in resolving phylogenetic relationships.</p>

<body><sec id="Sec1"><title>Background</title>
<p>Duplication events (e.g. whole genome duplication, segmental duplication, local and tandem duplication) are prevalent through the evolutionary history of flowering plants [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>
]. These duplications are potential sources of genes with new functions, thus contributing to taxonomic diversity. However, some duplicates might be loss as the protein or transcriptional network balance is maintained [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR2">2</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR5">5</xref>
]. In certain situations, some genes are actually returned to a single copy status. In general, single copy genes may occur in two ways following duplicastions: (1) a neutral process in which dosage-insensitive duplicate genes are not under selection to lose randomly in the genome, and (2) the other is involved in selection that dosage-sensitive genes are more likely to repeatedly restore to a single copy, occurring as duplication-resistant [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR6">6</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR8">8</xref>
]. Using comparative genomics, several studies have focused on characterization of single copy genes in plants. In earlier studies, single copy genes were analyzed only in a few genomes (e.g. <italic>Arabidopsis</italic>
, <italic>Populus</italic>
, <italic>Vitis</italic>
and <italic>Oryza</italic>
) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>
], thus there remains a lack of understanding about many of the evolutionary and functional characteristics of such genes. De Smet et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>
] were the first to investigate the existence of single copy genes in 20 flowering plants, and from that study proposed that a subset of these single copy genes were under strong selective pressure to remain as a singleton. In addition, these single copy genes were highly conserved and were found to participate in essential housekeeping functions. However, the authors did not further examine the underlying species-specific differences related to single copy genes. In fact, following the lineage divergence, the mechanisms by which single copy genes having been experienced birth and death within different lingages might be diverse, thereby making characterizing the single copy genes complicated.</p>
<p>Traditionally, single copy genes were primarily used as markers in plant systematic studies, (e.g. <italic>waxy</italic>
, <italic>leafy</italic>
, <italic>alcohol</italic>
, <italic>nepGS</italic>
, <italic>GIGANTEA</italic>
, <italic>GPA1</italic>
) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR14">14</xref>
]. Compared with use of rDNA sequences, such are not subject to concerted evolution and thus facilitate homologous comparison [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR12">12</xref>
]. Perhaps more importantly, there are a large number of single copy genes in plant genomes, thus providing wide range of markers. The single copy genes listed above were first identified in a single genome, thus when used to phylogenetic reconstruction at a higher taxonomic level, it was not clear if there is a paralog in other genomes. It is therefore necessary to identify a set of single copy genes shared by multiple genomes to better resolve these phylogenetic trees. Similar studies have been completed in <italic>Arabidopsis</italic>
, <italic>Populus</italic>
, <italic>Vitis</italic>
and <italic>Oryza</italic>
[<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR10">10</xref>
]. However, the number of genomes investigated was too low, and attention was focused only on protein-coding sequences, without inclusion of intron sequences. This is of importance as intron regions are often used to explain some phylogenetic hypotheses. For example, the 7th to 10th introns of the nepGS gene (Chloroplast-Expressed Glutamine Synthetase) from <italic>Oxalis</italic>
(Oxalidaceae) are used as a phylogenetic marker at lower taxonomic levels [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR15">15</xref>
]. It is therefore important to further evaluate the effects of intron on phylogeny reconstruction when using single copy genes.</p>
<p>In this present study, single copy genes were identified and characterized from the previously sequenced genomes of 29 angiosperms. Codon choice may affect various molecular mechanisms, including protein folding, exon splicing, translational accuracy and efficiency [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR16">16</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR19">19</xref>
]. Thus to evaluate codon bias, codon usage indices were measured among the single copy genes. In addition, the selective constraints imposed on single copy genes were also examined. We also assessed the reliability of phylogeny developed from identified single copy genes.</p>

<sec id="Sec2" sec-type="results"><title>Results</title>
<sec id="Sec3"><title>Identification of single copy genes</title>
<p>The percentage of single copy genes identified in 29 angiosperm genomes ranged widely, from approximately 8%-35% (details in Table <xref rid="Tab1" ref-type="table">1</xref>
). The lower percentage was for <italic>Brassica rapa</italic>
and <italic>Glycine max</italic>
, while the higher was for <italic>Ricinus communis</italic>
and <italic>Carica papaya</italic>
. When collinear genes were examined within each lineage, there was a significant and negative correlation between the number of duplicate blocks and the number of single copy genes (Spearman test, <italic>r</italic>
= -0.694, <italic>p</italic>
= 2.956e-005). In each genome there were a number of species-specific singletons. The ratio (singleton/total single copy) was between approximately 10%-68%. There was no significant correlation between the number of duplicate blocks and the number of singletons. However, we did note that an increase in genome number was associated with a decrease in the number of shared single copy genes among different lineages. The identified single copy genes (including the number of BLAST hits) across 29 angiosperm genomes are listed in Additional file <xref rid="MOESM1" ref-type="media">1</xref>

<sec id="Sec10"><title>Varied number of single copy genes within angiosperm genomes</title>
<p>De Smet et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>
] have previously reported single copy genes in 20 angiosperm genomes, but they focused on the conserved single copy genes across multiple lineages other than characterize the species-specific single copy genes. Additionally, those genes with duplicates in up to three species can be regarded as single copy genes, thus the number of shared single copy genes may be higher than the species-specific single copy genes. For example, there were 14993 shared single copy genes between <italic>A. thaliana</italic>
and <italic>A. lyrata</italic>
according to previous reports but we have only identified 4285 and 4863 single copy genes in those two species, respectively. In our study, large variance in the number of single copy genes within angiosperm genomes was found. This copy number divergence was partly attributed to duplication events within each genome. In particular, whole genome duplication can lead to an instantaneous change in gene content. If single copy genes were present as a result of selective pressure, one copy would inevitably be lost in the subsequent evolutionary step. It is not clear what mechanism(s) dictate which single copy genes will remain, and which will be lost. The negative correlation between the number of duplicate blocks and the number of single copy genes indicated that duplicate events greatly impact the number of single copy genes, so some homologous single copy genes may not be equally restored to single copy status, due to different duplication frequencies across different lineages. In addition, the early duplicate cues can be disrupted by the unequal crossing-over, gene conversion, retroposition, etc., thus complicating the relationship between the duplicate events and the single copy genes [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR1">1</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR32">32</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR34">34</xref>
]. Moreover, except for duplication-resistant genes, other duplicate genes may randomly revert to single copy status as dosage-insensitive genes are more likely to exhibit copy number variation [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR35">35</xref>
]. Therefore, it was not entirely surprising that the number of shared single copy genes decreased as more genomes were compared.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="Sec11"><title>Characteristics of single copy genes</title>
<p>The cell and organelle location indicated that a large proportion of single copy genes coded for intracellular and organelle components. This suggested that single copy genes may be involved in a cascade of processes in which single copy genes are first coded in nuclei, and then transported to organelles where single copy genes are very common. In order to maintain proper stoichiometric balance with interacting partner(s) that are encoded in the organelle genome, single copy genes coded in nuclear genome may tend to remain in a single copy status [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR9">9</xref>
]. It is noteworthy that one of the most enriched MF terms of single copy genes were related to binding functions. Thus, many single copy genes may participate in the formation of macromolecular complexes to maintain essential metabolic processes. Because those complexes are sensitive to the stoichiometric balance [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR7">7</xref>
], single copy genes would need to be duplication-resistant.</p>
<p>Codon usage bias can be used to analyze selective pressure operating on genes. Based on the Nc values, there was a strong codon bias for single copy genes than for non-single copy genes in eudicots. In addition, there was a weaker correlation between Nc and GC3 values for single copy genes than for non-single copy genes (Additional file <xref rid="MOESM7" ref-type="media">7</xref>
). This may provide indirect evidence that translational selection more strongly dictates codon usage bias other than compositional bias for single copy genes in eudicots. There was more strongly negative correlation between the Nc values and the GC3 values in grass species. Thus, relative to that in eudicot species, more compositional bias may occur among the single copy genes in monocot species. In addition, in light of the differential CAI indices, we estimated that some single copy genes follow distinct evolutionary routes after eudicot-monocot divergence. Strong evidence for this hypothesis is that eudicot species share a common genome triplication, different from monocot species [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR36">36</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR38">38</xref>
]. Previous studies also provided direct evidences that eudicot and monocot species share different features of codon usage [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR39">39</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR41">41</xref>
]. We concluded that a clear distinction among codon usage of single copy genes between eudicot and monocot species was evident and beneficial to experimental verification in the future.</p>
<p>The GC3 values tended to be lower in single copy genes than in non-single copy genes indicating higher gene expression levels, consistent with that observed in earlier studies. This was also confirmed in part by the RNA-seq analysis from the <italic>O. sativa</italic>
, <italic>Z. mays</italic>
, <italic>P. vulgaris</italic>
and <italic>G. max</italic>
in our study and previous study of De Smet et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>
] which based on expression levels of single copy genes in <italic>A. thaliana</italic>
. Therefore, single copy genes might be under stronger selective constraints [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR11">11</xref>
]. But the relationship between gene expression level and GC3 content needs to be further validated. Similar to previous studies, the more conservative evolution of single copy genes was supported by the values of <italic>Ka</italic>
and <italic>Ks</italic>
in two species pairs, <italic>A. thaliana</italic>
vs <italic>G. max</italic>
and <italic>Solanum tuberosum</italic>
vs <italic>S. lycopersicum,</italic>
which represented different taxonomic levels in our study (Additional file <xref rid="MOESM8" ref-type="media">8</xref>
). Our results revealed that AS events were significantly correlated with the gene number of gene family and that single copy genes had on average, a lower number of AS events relative to low copy family genes. According to earlier reports [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR29">29</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR42">42</xref>
], this suggested that AS may impose a stronger selective constraint on low copy family genes than on single copy genes. Previous studies found that AS and gene duplication did not evolve independently [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR43">43</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR44">44</xref>
]. The gene duplication can result in the loss of AS because the functions of different AS isoforms may be kept by different duplicate genes. The large family genes tend to have less AS due to multiple rounds of gene duplication, but the ancient duplicate gene may undergo neofunctionalization by acquiring new functional AS isoforms. We speculated that a large set of small gene family may experience the loss of in-paralogs and the functions of former in-paralogs may be complemented by the new AS isoforms of remaining gene copies, thus showing higher level of AS. Furthermore, Ner-Gaon et al. [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR45">45</xref>
] found that the increase of genome size can lead to the additional AS increment in eudicots other than in monocots because the expansion of genomes in monocots was mainly due to the nested retrotransposons within noncoding regions other than within genes. Taken together, a more detailed investigation of species specificity, evolutionary mechanism specificity, and function specificity corresponding to single copy genes should be undertaken in the future.</p>
</sec>
<sec id="Sec12"><title>Phylogenetic reconstruction using single copy genes</title>
<p>The use of molecular characters provides a wealth of new information that sheds light on many components of the plant tree of life. The advantage of the single copy genes is their bi-parental inheritance (compared to maternally inherited plastid markers), and the absence of paralogs [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR46">46</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR47">47</xref>
]. These features are useful for use in studies aimed at unraveling patterns of reticulate evolution, hybrid formation, and parentage of polyploids [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR48">48</xref>
]. In our study, the use of individual single copy genes was not able to resolve a clear phylogenetic tree in most instances. This may be due in part to: (1) a scarcity of informative characters, and (2) the incongruence between different single copy genes. This might be remedied by analysis of concatenated multiple shared single copy genes. With the addition of the intron sequences, the phylogenetic tree was fully resolved. But if it were true, several evolutionary pathways among plant kingdom would require major modification. So such a phylogenetic tree was unreasonable. One explanation for this contradiction was that the systematic error leading to tree reconstruction artifacts was produced due to the presence of a huge number of non-phylogenetic signals in intron sequences [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR49">49</xref>
–<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR51">51</xref>
]. These systematic errors would not only average out by addition of number of sites but can dominate the true phylogenetic signal [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR51">51</xref>
]. Therefore, caution should be followed when intron sequences are included in single copy genes, especially at higher taxonomic levels. Thus, we suggest that introns within single copy genes will be more specially suited to recover the relationships of intra-species.</p>

<sec id="Sec13" sec-type="conclusions"><title>Conclusions</title>
<p>The number of single copy genes varied greatly within angiosperm genomes, and these genes may be involved in essential metabolic processes. In general, single copy genes in eudicots had a stronger codon usage bias than in monocots. The higher gene expression level and more conservative sequences suggested that single copy genes have a preferential role in biological pathways. But the single copy genes did not always exhibit a higher CAI value. So based on complex evolutionary mechanisms of single copy genes, there were also some species-specific characteristics among different lineages. As for the AS events, the selective constraints of single copy genes were stronger than for high copy family genes, but lower than low copy family genes, suggesting a moderate selective constraint. In view of our phylogenetic test, single copy genes are good sources for molecular markers to complement data from chloroplast sequences and rDNA, yet the inclusion of intron sequences may produce artifacts.</p>

<sec id="Sec16"><title>Selecting single copy genes</title>
<p>To identify single copy genes in each species, each of the 29 protein data sets was compared against itself using BLAST program (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/executables/blast+/2.2.28/">ftp://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/executables/blast+/2.2.28/</ext-link>
), with an e-value cutoff of 1e-10 and up to 200 alignments. Single copy genes were then extracted within each species by the tcl script (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://cgpdb.ucdavis.edu/BlastParser/Blast_Parser.html">http://cgpdb.ucdavis.edu/BlastParser/Blast_Parser.html</ext-link>
). There were three steps for identifying shared single copy genes: (1) all protein data sets were compared against each other using an all-blast-all BLAST with an e-value cutoff of 1e-5, coverage of at least 70% of the query protein and identity of at least 30%. Using MCL (The Markov Cluster Algorithm) method [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR52">52</xref>
], (2) all protein sequences were clustered into different groups with a conservative and stringent inflation value of 5.0, and lastly since the outputs of MCL might be susceptible to the choice of the inflation parameter, determining the cluster tightness (granularity) [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR52">52</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR53">53</xref>
] (3) those roughly shared protein groups were simultaneously confirmed by multiple rounds of mutual blast procedures and using tcl script listed in above. According to the final clusters of orthologous genes, the number of BLAST hits of all species-specific single copy genes in 29 plant lineages was estimated. Identification of duplicate regions for each of the 29 angiosperm genomes was accomplished using MCScanX [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="CR54">54</xref>
]. The parameters setting for MCScanX was as follows: the BLASTP was applied to find intra-species paralogous pairs with an e-value cutoff of 1e-10, and the duplicate blocks involved at least 5 collinear gene pairs and the gap gene pair number was not more than 20.</p>
