Scaffold locations of evolutionary footprints of AIG genes in the B. glabrata BB02 genome. The evolutionary footprints of AIG genes in B. glabrata consist of three types: GIMAP (AIG gene with coiled-coil domain), AIG gene without coiled-coil domain, and partial AIGs. Scaffold backbones were drawn with gray lines. Scaffolds longer than the figure region were marked with gray dots on left or right end of the gray lines. Genes on the forward strand were marked out using left-to-right arrows above scaffold lines, showing GIMAP genes (blue) and AIG genes (sky blue). Genes on the reverse strand were marked out using right-to-left arrows below scaffold lines, showing GIMAP genes (red) and AIG genes (pink). Partial AIGs (black) were showing on both forward and reverse strands. Scaffold IDs were labeled above each scaffold. Numbers in parenthesis after scaffold IDs are total number of AIG genes (with and without coiled-coils) on the scaffold. Gray parentheses enclosed genes within the same tandem array (no other genes in between)
