Figure 2

Whole-genome dot-plot comparison between the Dothideomycetes species Mycosphaerella graminicola and Phaeosphaeria nodorum. (a) The six-frame translations of both genomes were compared via MUMmer 3.0. Homologous regions are plotted as dots, which are color coded for percent similarity as per the color bar (right). Chromosomes 1 to 21 from M. graminicola are displayed by decreasing size along the y axis and scaffolds 1 to 107 from P. nodorum are displayed along the x axis. Dots represent matching regions between translated scaffold sequences. Mesosyntenic regions appear as dots within boxes without any obvious diagonal lines. (b) Homology relationships between chromosome 12 of M. graminicola and scaffold 17 of P. nodorum. Red lines link parallel homologous pairs and blue lines link anti-parallel pairs.
