Figure 1

Similarity between w Au and w Mel genomes. A dot plot illustrating the similarity between wAu and wMel genomes. Axes show position in the genome (bp). Lines indicate regions of similarity. Lines on the diagonal from top left to bottom right indicate regions with the same location and arrangement in both genomes. Lines in the same orientation as this diagonal but located elsewhere indicate regions that are translocated in one genome relative to the other. Lines at right angles to the diagonal indicate regions that are inverted in one genome relative to the other. Parallel lines indicate repeated or similar regions.
