Figure 1. Organization of the subtelomeric regions of chromosome 12 of the PvP01 and Salvador-I P. vivax references illustrating the higher assembly quality of PvP01.

Figure 1.

The order and orientation of the genes in the 3’ subtelomeric region of chromosomes 12 of PvP01 (top) and Salvador-I (bottom) are shown. Exons are shown in coloured boxes, with introns illustrated by linking lines. Gaps in PvP01 are indicated with a forward slash (“/”). The blue box indicates the start of the telomeric heptamer repeats. The shaded (grey) areas mark the start of the conserved core of the chromosome that shares synteny with other Plasmodium species (e.g. P. falciparum). The black box shows the syntenic area of PvP01 and Salvador-I. The last gene in this syntenic area is fragmented in Salvador-I.
