FIG 4.

Chromatin conformation conservation independent of genome sequence synteny conservation in fungi. (A) Distributions of empirically determined CHESS z-scores for syntenic region pairs in CYR34 and P. graminis f. sp. tritici 21-0 (red line) and 100 random permutations of region pairs (gray lines). (B and C) Two examples of syntenic regions with different z-scores. (D) Distribution of z-scores over syntenic scores. Note the low Pearson correlation coefficient.
