Figure 3

Comparative analysis of mitochondrial genomes of S. schenckii and S. brasiliensis . (A) Gene content and order in mitochondrial genomes of S. schenckii vs. S. brasiliensis showing high synteny despite the considerable difference in size. Insertions of LAGLIDADG and GIY-YIG intron I type homing endonucleases in S. brasiliensis are present inside cytochrome C oxidase 1, ATP synthase subunit 6 and NADH dehydrogenase subunits 2 and 3 genes. (B) Phylogenetic analysis was performed using the five LAGLIDADG or GIY-YIG elements found in S. brasiliensis showing no pattern of ancestry with other close related species.
