Characteristics of the organellar genomes of Leontynka pallida. a Gene map of the L. pallida plastid genome. Genes are shown as squares (coloured according to the functional category; see the graphical legend in the bottom left corner) on the inner or outer side of the outer circle depending on their orientation (transcription in the clockwise or counter-clockwise direction, respectively; see the grey arrows). Genes marked with an asterisk contain introns. The inner circle represents a GC content plot. b Sequence self-similarity plot of the L. pallida plastome (ptDNA). c Map of the L. pallida mitochondrial genome. The display convention is the same as for the plastid genome. d Sequence self-similarity plot of the L. pallida mitochondrial genome (mtDNA). eL. pallida plastome-mitogenome similarity plot. All similarity plots were generated by using a word size of 15 bp and black dots represent the occurrence of the same word at the places compared
