Summary of the synteny over the different genomic regions compared between F. depauperata and C. neoformans. The x-axis shows the gene names according to the annotations in the genome of C. neoformans strains JEC21. The y-axis shows the level of synteny. The maximum synteny score (score = 2) was assigned to those ORFs fully syntenic because they are located between two adjacently conserved genes, while ORFs of adjacent pairs were assigned a lower score (score = 1). Those ORFs with no adjacent genes conserved between the two species were given the lowest synteny score (score = 0). The scoring system disregards the direction in which the genes are transcribed, and focuses on gene order by displaying the score for each gene calculated from the number of syntenic adjacent genes.
