Figure 1. Pulse-field gel electrophoresis comparing chromosomes of T. evansi STIB805 (Tev) and T. b. brucei TREU 927/4 (927).

Figure 1

While the sizes of megabase chromosomes are largely similar, differences in the intermediate and minichromosomes (825 kbp and smaller) are evident between T. evansi and T. brucei. Although T. brucei chromosomes I-XI were not unambiguously identified, labels to the left of the gel indicate bands consistent with the expected T. brucei chromosome sizes [46], as well as intermediate and minichromosomes. The signal at the top of the gel is from the well, as indicated.
