Figure 1.

Schematic view of the alignment of SlX9, SdX9, SlY9 and Sv9. Sizes of introns and exons are not drawn to scale. Both X-linked intronic variants are shown (SlX9_hap_1 and SlX9_hap_2). Thick lines around exons: sequences available for at least one individual. (The original S. latifolia cDNA clone from which the gene was identified contained the whole open reading frame; sizes of exons for which we do not have complete sequences are drawn based on the assumption that exon sizes are the same as for the cDNA.) Note: sequences used in the diversity studies of SlX9, SdX9 and SlY9 only cover parts of the gene sequences, as indicated.
