Figure 2: Intergene regions.

Distribution of intergene regions given for all genes and for divergent and convergent pairs of genes, for both S. pombe and S. cerevisiae. A total of 4,890 intergene regions from S. pombe were analysed from a database prepared just before completion of the whole genome, and 5,788 intergene regions from S. cerevisiae were analysed. Histograms show the number of regions in 200-bp bins.
