Alignment of prophage Φ804–7 and Φ804–15 and the locations of 16 inverted and direct repeat sequences, including the flanking ends of the inversion. Inverted and direct repeat sequences ≥100 bp in length were evaluated as potential sites of recombination (blue). The inverted segment of the FRIK804 chromosome relative to the Sakai chromosome was flanked by a pair of repeats, the site of the crossover of the inversion is shown in red. To better show alignment, the orientation of Φ804–15 is inverted relative to Φ804–7
