Figure 6From: A spruce gene map infers ancient plant genome reshuffling and subsequent slow evolution in the gymnosperm lineage leading to extant conifersOrganization of the spruce gene space and duplications. Genome representation with spruce chromosomes (1 to 12) showing from outside to inside: the 12 chromosomes with ticks representing the genes mapped along the spruce linkage groups, and with genetic distances in cM (Kosambi); links between genes representing duplications within chromosomes and duplications followed by inter-chromosomal translocations. Links in grey illustrate ancient and links in red illustrate recent, referring to before or after the gymnosperm-angiosperm split, around 300 Mya [13].Back to article page
