Figure 7

Direction of chromosomal rearrangements in Cerradomys. Fragment of the chromosomal phylogeny obtained in Fig. 5. Only idiograms of the chromosomes involved in rearrangements of Cerradomys taxa are displayed (Node A) and showing direction of chromosomal rearrangements (Nodes B-G) that shaped extant karyotypes of C. scotii (CSC), C. langguthi (CLA), C. vivoi (CVI) and C. subflavus (CSU). Idiograms are shown based on the HME karyotype (see Fig. 6). Each node indicates the number and type of chromosomal rearrangements that occurred during taxa diversification. The box indicates acronyms for chromosomal rearrangements and its respective legends.
