Rice chromosomes are shown on the left, filled with density of repeat elements for every 100 kb window. Sequence blocks of O. brachyantha on each chromosome are represented by black boxes on the right. Syntenic regions, defined as described in Methods, are shaded in grey. Large sequence blocks were anchored to the chromosomes by a cytogenetic approach. Small sequence blocks of pericentromeric regions, in which few collinear genes could be defined, were anchored to the chromosomes by integration with the physical map and confirmation by Southern blot.
