Summary of assembled chromosomes from the A. mexicanum genome. Three images are shown for each chromosome (1–14): (left) microscopic image illustrating DAPI banding; (center) an idiogram summarizing banding patterns and relative sizes of chromosomes from several spreads (Supplemental Fig. S1); and (right) the corresponding linkage group. Groups of linked markers at a given position are represented by horizontal marks on linkage groups. The location of genes and hybridization signals from gene-anchored BACs are labeled with the corresponding gene ID and connecting lines. The length of each linkage group and assembled chromosome is given next to its numerical label. The locations of three additional features are highlighted: (met) a major quantitative trait locus controlling timing and incidence of metamorphosis; (sex) the sex determining locus; and (NOR) the nucleolar organizer, which harbors most ribosomal RNA copies.
