All heterozygous BMN lines were grown in the presence of a) YPD, b) YPD + 1µM nystatin, c) YPD + 2µM nystatin, and d) YPD + 4µM nystatin for 80 hours. Culture from wells that showed growth in this experiment were frozen and utilized for Sanger sequencing. 1

Culture isolated from heterozygous replicates (het-grow lines) that a) showed stochastic growth in YPD + 2µM nystatin, b) grew much less stochastically after they were isolated, propagated for 24 hours of growth in YPD, then inoculated back into nystatin. 2

Supplementary Figure 3 Chromatograms indicate that BMN35 replicate populations isolated after growth in YPD + 1µM nystatin are polymorphic. A comparison of chromatograms from a) BY4741 (wildtype) culture, b) heterozygous BMN35 culture and c) culture isolated after BMN35 heterozygotes were grown in YPD + 1µM nystatin indicates that these populations are polymorphic for homozygous and heterozygous individuals carrying the deletion that is present in the BMN35 background. The peak heights that correspond to the wildtype base in the appropriate region are less than 50%, indicating that homozygous mutant individuals are sweeping through the population. 3

4 BMN line colony Coverage Chromosome Supplementary Figure 4 Average depth of coverage for each chromosome in six het-grow lines. Six het-grow lines (those that exhibited the lowest G1 mean) were Illumina resequenced and coverage per chromosome was obtained using configurebuild.pl from Illumina s CASAVA package. Plotted for each strain is the proportion of sequenced sites that map to each chromosome relative to the proportion of known mapped sites on that chromosome within the reference genome. Line is diploid according to flow cytometry yet monosomic for chromosome 3, while line is haploid by flow cytometery, but disomic for chromosomes 2 and 9. 4

For each chromosome in each line, alignments were obtained using Illumina s CASAVA package. The pileup program in samtools-0.1.7a was then used to obtain reads by position across the genome. A custom perl script was then used to calculate average depth of coverage in 1000 basepair windows across each chromosome. These windows skipped over sites where the depth of coverage was zero, which could be due to either deletions or ambiguous alignments (plots showing positions with no alignments are available upon request). Panels A-i through A-XVI illustrate the depth of coverage for chromosomes I-XVI for lines,, and. Panels B-i through B-XVI illustrate depth of coverage for lines (note extra copies of chromosomes 2 and 9),, and (note missing copy of chromosome 3). 6

Fragment counts from the beginning and end of each gene obtained by in silico qpcr. The unix command grep was used to count the number of copies of the first and last 18bp of each ERG gene, in forward and reverse orientations, directly within the fastq sequences of unaligned 100bp paired end fragments obtained from Illumina sequencing. The average number of fragment counts was then divided by the average coverage across the genome from the CASAVA alignments. This relative fragment number is plotted, with 1 on the y-axis representing the median across the 6 lines (to minimize differences in scale across the genes). Panels show the relative fragment number from in silico qpcr of the (top) ERG genes and (bottom) four control genes chosen from the same chromosomes as ERG3 and ERG6. For each gene, we confirmed by BLASTing the yeast genome ( that the 18bp at the beginning and end of each gene was unique. 7

16 Supplementary Table 9 Secondary mutations remained heterozygous. Seven of the original BMN lines contained secondary mutations that were unlinked to the ergosterol mutations. These secondary mutations remained heterozygous in the 24 related het-grow lines isolated from both bioscreen (b) and deep well box (d) experiments. This suggests that LOH was localized to the chromosome and did not arise due to ploidy cycles.
