Comparative genome analysis of the Epicoccum sorghinum strains infecting maize (NJC07), sorghum (USPMTOX48) and sugarcane (BS2-1). (A) average nucleotide identity (i.e., the average percentage of identical nucleotides within the aligned regions of two genomes; upper half diagonal) and alignment percentage (i.e., the average percentage of the aligned regions of two genomes; lower half diagonal); (B) genome synteny analysis of the three strains. Colored regions within the contigs illustrate local alignment synteny blocks. Lines of matching colors connect synteny blocks across the three genomes. (C) The whole-genome dot plot shows collinearity between the NJC07 and BS2-1 genomes. The blue diagonal line indicates collinearity, while interruptions along the line represent genomic rearrangements, such as inversions. (D) The whole-genome dot plot displays collinearity between the NJC07 and USPMTOX48 genomes.
