Conservation of gene order and distances between H. erato and B. mori. VISTA analysis shows sequence conservation between coding regions in the Cr-linked H. erato BAC clones (BBAM-38A20, accession number AC193804; BBAM-27D18, accession number AC199750 and BBAM-12K4, accession number AC220074) and the B. mori scaffold sequence 2829 (position: 2706326–2993165). Genes showing a high similarity to know proteins in other arthropods are represented with black squares and arrows indicating orientation (when orientation is different arrows are displayed for both species). The lines between the two sequences unite the homologous genes giving a visual representation of the overall synteny between the two species.
