Fig. 7

The Anopheles stephensi cytogenetic photomap of polytene chromosomes with anchored scaffolds from the AsteI2 assembly. The updated cytogenetic photomap is shown with chromosome arm subdivisions (labelled with letters A, B, C, etc. directly below each chromosome) and divisions (labelled with numbers 1–46 below the subdivision labels). Locations of known polymorphic inversions are indicated with lowercase letters above chromosome arms 2R, 2L, 3R, and 3L. The AsteI2 assembly identifiers of the 118 mapped scaffolds are shown above each chromosome arm (scaffold identifiers are abbreviated, e.g. ‘scaffold_00001’ is shown on the map as ‘00001’), and the locations of FISH probes used to map the scaffolds are shown with downward-pointing arrows. For scaffolds with two mapped FISH probes, the orientations along the genome map are shown with horizontal arrows below each of the scaffold identifiers, with labels indicating the proportion (%) of each scaffold located between the probe pairs
