Figure 4.
Putative vrt and gsf clusters embedded within conserved syntenic regions of P. aethiopicum genome. (A) vrt cluster on contig 0274 and the corresponding locus on P. chrysogenum contig Pc00c21. (B) gsf cluster on contig 0880 and the corresponding locus on P. chrysogenum contig Pc00c06. Blocks on the thin lines indicate conserved syntenic blocks on the contigs. The symbols (△ ◇ ▲ ◆ ▼) indicate short conserved regions within the vrt and gsf clusters that are remained at the corresponding loci in P. chrysogenum. Block arrows: black, genes predicted not to be involved in the biosynthesis of 1 and 2; white, putative pseudogenes.
