Figure 5.

Chromosome structure comparison between T. aestivum 5D and B. distachyon. a. Cartoon showing co-linearity between 5D deletion bins and B. distachyon chromosomes 1 (Bd1) and 4 (Bd4), and major rearrangements. Pale coloured bands show large regions of co-linear genes. Coloured lines show smaller translocations where one or a few genes were mapped to a different deletion bin. inv: probable inversion in 5DS relative to Bd4. 1,2,3: segments of 5DL that are rearranged relative to Bd4. b. Graph showing relative contribution of syntenic and non-syntenic genes to each deletion bin, for all genes that were also mapped to a deletion bin. Asterisks indicate statistically significant differences in the composition of bin 5DS2, calculated using Fisher’s exact test (**p < 0.01). Bin 5DS5 was omitted because too few genes mapped to this bin to draw meaningful conclusions.
