Fig. 1. — Sequence S_r is defined by the boundaries of two consecutive synteny blocks A_r and B_r on the genome G_r. S_oA (S_oB) is defined by the boundaries of the orthologous block A_o (B_o) and of the previous/next synteny block (according to the orientation of the blocks) in the genome G_o. To perform the segmentation, the package considers the extended version of the sequences S_r, S_oA and, S_oB which includes the first/last genes of the synteny blocks.
