Spatial overview of the transcriptome and the sex chromosome (XIX) of the threespine stickleback. (A) The X chromosome of the threespine stickleback consists of three regions: The PAR, stratum I, and stratum II. (B) The transcriptome was assembled from a total of 30,336 genes. Chromosomes are labeled with roman numbers and sizes are provided in mega bases (Mb; unmapped scaffolds are not shown). The expression fold-change of genes and their mean baseline expression level as reported from the DESeq2 analysis were smoothed for this figure using a sliding window approach implemented in the R package “zoo” (Zeileis and Grothendieck 2005). The inner two circles show the spatial distribution of genes with male- and female-biased expression along the transcriptome. The figure was generated using the R package “ggbio” (Yin et al. 2012).
