Organization of the rRNA genes within the honey bee genome. (A) Typical organization of the nuclear rRNA genes of eukaryotes. IGS, intergenic spacer; SSU, small subunit; LSU, large subunit. (B) Position of the rRNA genes (shaded) within the honey bee mitochondrial genome (top) and the ancestral arthropod mitochondrial genome (bottom). Rearrangements in the honey bee genome are depicted with solid lines. See Clary & Wolstenholme (1985, 1987) and Crozier & Crozier (1993) for information on honey bee mitochondrial genes.
