Figure 3.

Genome structure simulations in which the number of reciprocal translocations and the number of retained paralogs were varied. Each cell shows values for the number of blocks discovered in the genome (top), the proportion of the genome that is in blocks (middle), and the number of pairs of duplicated genes discovered within blocks (bottom). Mean values among 200 replicates are shown. The standard error on the number of blocks was ≤4; that on the fraction of genome in blocks was ≤0.03; that on the number of paralogs identified was ≤9. Shaded cells are within two standard errors of the value for the yeast data. Fifty-five blocks covering 51% of the genome and containing 365 pairs of paralogs have been mapped in the yeast data (11).
