Fig. 2. Sponge gourd genome assembly.
a The results of k-mer analysis used to estimate the size of the sponge gourd genome. b Hi-C contact map data analysis. c Circular diagram showing the genetic collinearity among sponge gourd chromosomes. The concentric circles (from inside to outside) are as follows: gene density, LTR density, and collinear genome blocks, which are connected by curved lines of the same color for each element. All data are rendered based on a 200-kb window size
