Synteny analyses of Z- and W-linked resolved haplotypes. a Circular plots showing that scaffolds 148 and 211 are W-linked and align to the SDR of chromosome 15. From the outside to the center, (I) depicts the heatmap of log2 females:males read depth in non-overlapping windows of 5 kb, (II) shows the repeat proportion in non-overlapping windows of 10 kb, and (III) indicates the location of annotated genes. Links between genes were computed from the best BLASTP hits and are color coded relative to the BLASTP alignment percent identity, with percent identity > 80% in blue and > 90% in red. Positions are shown in kb. b, c A highly conserved synteny between Z- and W-linked scaffolds
