Antagonistic impact of TAD stabilization and genomic arrangements on orthologous expression divergence between Gossypioides kirkii and Gossypium species (G. arboreum and G. raimondii). a Expression difference between syntenic gene orthologs adjacent to synteny breaks vs. those distal from synteny breaks. b Expression difference between syntenic gene orthologs in conserved TADs vs. those in rearranged TADs. c Expression differences of syntenic gene orthologs in conserved TADs being proximal to synteny breaks vs. those being distal from synteny breaks. All statistical significance p values were calculated using Wilcoxon’s rank sum test
