Fig 5. Allele composition maps reveal recombination breakpoints in L. tropica hybrids.

Fig 5

A total of 32923 biallelic markers with homozygous differences between LtMA37/NEO and LtL747/HYG were followed. The marker position was colored as red if both alleles matched LtMA37/NEO, as green if they both matched LtL747/HYG, and as yellow if heterozygous. LtKub/SAT is 99% heterozygous for these markers, indicating that it is a hybrid between lines that share ancestry with LtL747 and LtMA37. The profiles of the outcrosses of LtKub/SAT with LtL747/HYG (left plot) or with LtMA37/NEO (right plot) indicate regions that alternate between homozygosity and heterozygosity, similar to backcrosses. The recombination break points are indicated by the blue bars.
