Figure 4. Comparative cytogenetic map of Xenopus (Silurana) tropicalis.Homologous chicken and human chromosomes are shown to the left of each X. tropicalis chromosome (see Table S3). Genetic linkages of chicken macrochromosomal arms and/or macrochromosomes are represented by the same colored bars as those in Figure 2. The G-banded ideograms of X. tropicalis chromosomes were taken from our previous report [40]. Chromosomes are ordered in accordance with Hellsten et al. [20]. Numbers in parentheses indicate chromosome numbers from our previous report [40]. Solid bars to the right of the X. tropicalis chromosomes indicate the chromosomal segments in which intrachromosomal rearrangements occurred between X. tropicalis and chicken. Gene symbols and chicken chromosome numbers enclosed in boxes indicate the chromosomal segments that corresponded to chicken microchromosomes in which intrachromosomal rearrangements had occurred. un, chromosomal location is unknown.
