Pro-apoptotic RHG gene group syntenic relationships and relative distances in D. melanogaster (top) and C. capitata (bottom). A comparison between the RHG regions, including the hid, grim, rpr (reaper), and skl (sickle) genes, located on chromosome 3L (75C) in D. melanogaster and on chromosome 6R (scaffold 2; NW_004523691) in C. capitata, reveals a similar organization of genes in the two species. The RHG region in C. capitata is 2.9-fold larger relative to D. melanogaster, which correlates approximately to the relative total genome size of the two species
