FIGURE 3.

Genomic consensus of the study populations and hpEurope references. These circular views were obtained using the method developed by Tada et al. (2017), which creates a consensus genome that is used as a template for alignment. Each ring represents one complete genome and each block in the ring represents a genomic region. Different colors represent the genes according to their genomic position in the consensus. The shifts in the color represent the rearrangements. The outermost ring is the distant genome from the consensus. The names alongside each circle indicate the genomes going from outward to inward direction. The indicated areas (black circles) in the ASHA (ring 2) and PUNO (rings 1, 5, and 6) genomes show the regions in which these genomes are similar to the LIM (rings 2 and 6). The green circles indicate the similarities between the LIM genomes and the hpEurope references. The genomes ASHA-003, PUNO-003, PUNO-009, and PUNO-010 had an inversion from 10 o’clock to 11 o’clock which was not observed in SHIM genomes.
