Figure 5. Comparative genome mapping of 2001 SNP and SSR markers genetically/physically mapped on eight desi chickpea LGs/chromosomes with their physical position on the pseudomolecules of kabuli chickpea (A), M. truncatula (B), G. max (C), L. japoincus (D) and C. cajan (E) chromosomes depicted conserved syntenic relationships among five legume genomes, which are depicted in the Circos circular ideogram. A high-degree of conserved collinear synteny among the chromosomes of desi and kabuli chickpea and Medicago genomes was evident.

The outermost circles represent the LGs/chromosomes of five legume genomes coded with different colours. The syntenic relationships of each LGs/chromosomes between two legume species are marked individually with different coloured lines.
