Figure 1. An overview of variants called from 17 mouse genomes relative to the reference.

Figure 1

a, The four wild strains (CAST/EiJ, WSB/EiJ, PWK/PhJ and SPRET/EiJ) are representative of the Mus musculus castaneus, Mus musculus musculus, Mus musculus domesticus and Mus spretus taxa and include the progenitors from which the classical laboratory strains were derived. These genomes are shown in a circle with tracks indicating the relative density of SNPs, structural variants (SVs) and uncallable regions (binned into 10-Mb regions). Transposable element (TE) insertions, which are a subset of the structural variant calls, are shown as a separate track. Corresponding tracks are shown for each of the 13 classical laboratory strains to the right of the circle. Links crossing the circle indicate regions on the reference where the wild strain is closest to the reference (375-kb bins). b, The numbers inside the Venn diagrams indicate the number of SNPs, indels, structural variant deletions and transposable element insertions in the wild and classical laboratory strains. The numbers beneath each Venn diagram indicate totals for each type of variant in the wild and classical laboratory strains.
