  1. Each syntenic region consists of a number of matches and gaps The Match Length and Average Identity columns represent the total length and the average sequence identity of the matches in each syntenic block. The length of the syntenic region (i.e., the sum of the lengths of the matches and gaps) and the percentage of the matches over the syntenic blocks in the potato BACs is shown in the columns "Synteny Length" and "Coverage", respectively. The Synteny Length Difference column represents the length difference between the potato and the corresponding tomato syntenic regions. A positive number means that the tomato syntenic region is longer than the corresponding potato syntenic region (i.e., there is an insertion in the tomato BAC or a deletion in the potato BAC) and vice versa. Columns Match Length, Average Identity, Synteny Length, Coverage and Synteny Length Difference are statistics summarized from the sequence alignments using the program NUCMER [53] at the nucleotide level. The No. Gene Pairs column shows the number of gene pairs syntenic identified through the DAGchainer program [68].
