Figure 3. Cereal (rice, maize, wheat) synteny. Graphical representation of the synteny between wheat (seven chromosomes from w1 to w7 at the top), rice (12 chromosomes from r1 to r12 at the centre) and maize (10 chromosomes from m1 to m10 at the bottom). Vertical lines represent orthologous pairs identified between rice and wheat [21•] or rice and maize [19]. The 30 previously defined ancestral linkage blocks are indicated into the 12 rice chromosome. The five colours used to represent the orthologous relationships refer to the five ancestral chromosomes (A5 = purple, A7 = red, A11 = blue, A8 = yellow, A4 = green) detailed in the text and in Figure 2.
