Characteristics of the plant secretomes assessed in this study. a-b Boxplot distributions of protein cysteine content (a) and length (b) for secreted proteins (blue boxes) and non-secreted proteins (red boxes). For each distribution, the centre line in each box indicates the median and black dots indicate the mean. Asterisks (*) indicate the medians for the secretome and non-secretome distributions were significantly different (p < 0.001, Wilcoxon rank sum test). c The secretome sizes as a percentage of the proteome. Red: non-parasitic plants. Green: root parasitic plants. Blue: shoot parasitic plants
