Fig. 2: High-quality assembly of Dipus sagitta genome and genomic elements of the four sequenced desert rodents.

a Hi-C heat map of Dipus sagitta genome assembly. b CIRCOS plot showing the distribution of GC content, transposable elements (TE), and coding sequences (CDS) in the D. sagitta genome. c Orthologous coding sequences composition inferred for thirteen rodents’ genomes. Mcar Mus caroli, Mmus Mus musculus, Mpah Mus Pahari, Mmer Meriones meridianus, Mung Meriones unguiculatus, Cgri Cricetulus griseus, Prob Phodopus roborovskii, Sgal Spalax galili, Osib Orientallactaga sibirica, Dsag Dipus sagitta, Jjac Jaculus jaculus, Hgla Heterocephalus glaber, Cpor Cavia porcellus. d Proportion of transposable elements (TEs). The barplots show the proportions of different types of TEs in corresponding species on the phylogenetic tree.
