Chromosomal locations of genes differentiating sweet and grain sorghum. Genes with large-effect SNPs, indels and PAVs in the two sweet sorghum lines but devoid of these genetic variations in the grain sorghum were identified, considered as the sweet-associated genes, and mapped to the sorghum genome (see text for details). A 1-Mbp sliding window was used to define sweet-related regions on individual chromosomes, and only those windows containing more than three sweet-associated genes are shown. The overall gene distribution in the sorghum genome is shown by the grey bars as the background of every chromosome.
