READING THE PLOT

A map of conserved genome structure

Arrow length encodes gene length; arrowheads show transcription direction. Pale ribbons connect aligned regions in neighboring genomes. Teal end blocks mark terminal inverted repeats; broad translucent bands mark Ngaro retrotransposons. The gray wiggle tracks show GC fraction in 50 bp windows.

SOURCE & REPRODUCIBILITY

The exact six-genome example from gggenomes, using public FASTA, GFF, BED, protein and DNA alignment files. These are EMALE01 elements in Cafeteria burkhardae, described by Hackl et al. (2021).
