Conserved syntenies between platyfish and zebrafish. (A) Orthologs of Xma16 genes lie on zebrafish chromosome Dre3 and paralogs of Xma16 genes are on Dre12, the TGD ohnolog of Dre3 (Postlethwait et al. 1998). (B) Reciprocally, orthologs of Dre3 lie on Xma16. (C) Orthologs of Xma17 are on Dre4. (D) Reciprocally, the orthologs of the left arm of Dre4 are on Xma17, but note that platyfish has few if any orthologs of genes on the right arm of Dre4, a heterochromatic arm that contains a major sex determinant in some zebrafish strains (Anderson et al. 2012). (E) Orthologs of Xma15 genes lie on Dre20 with paralogs on Dre17. (F) Orthologs of genes on Dre20 are mostly on Xma15 with several short stretches of 1 or 2 Mb on Xma9. (G) Most of the orthologs of genes on Xma14 are on Dre7 with the tip of the Xma14 chromosome bearing orthologs of Dre23 genes. (H) Some of the orthologs of Dre7 lie on Xma14, but others are on Xma4. The gray disk on zebrafish chromosomes indicates the location of the centromere.
