Characterization of inversions and indels. (A) Length distribution of inversions. Bars indicate the number of inversions in each size category as labeled on the x axis. Inversions <1 kb are not included. (B and C) Length distribution of medium and large indel polymorphisms. The red line represents indels that are aligned to repetitive sequence. Nonrepetitive indels are shown in blue. Lines are smoothed to eliminate noise. The peak centered at 891 bp contains 924 indels of length 863–913. The peak centered at 1,086 bp contains 479 indels of length 1,076–1,100. (D) Length distribution of microindels (indels <11 bp) plotted as a fraction of total indels <10 bp in length. Blue squares record microindels observed between the C. savignyi haplomes. Green triangles record microindels between the mouse and rat genomes (10).
