Comparison of RGH sequences in Medicago and chickpea. To highlight the comparison between the chickpea and Medicago RGHs, only those Medicago sequences that are relevant to the mapped chickpea sequences have been shown in this figure. In the TIR-NBS-LRR subfamily, chickpea RGH-G (CAC86496 on Ca-LG6) was found highly similar to several Medicago TIR-NBS-LRR genes (a) located on BAC clones AC144502 and AC135160. AC144502 and AC135160 were closely linked on Mt-LG4, in a region syntenic to Ca-LG6 that also contained chickpea RGH-G. In the CC-NBS-LRR (b) subfamily (Ca-LG5), chickpea RGH-B (CAC86491) was closely related to several CC-NBS-LRR genes located on Medicago BAC clones AC145027, AC142396, AC130810, AC146744, and AC131249
