a Morphology and Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The P. australis tiller stage, heading stage, Lugen (Rhizomes of P. australis after removal of fibrous roots, cleaning, sectioning, and drying), and three-year-old rhizomes were shown separately. The heading stage of P. australis was grown at the experimental site of the College of Life Sciences, Capital Normal University. The complete chromosome was identified by telomere repeat sequence probes (green). The 5SrDNA probe (red arrow) showed purple fluorescence, and the 18SrDNA probe (green arrow) showed green fluorescence. Scale bars 5 μm. b Circos plot of the P. australis genome. a. Chromosome length. b. GC content. c. GC skew. d. Gene density. e. LTR-Gypsy density. f. LTR-Copia density. g. Tandem repeats density. h. SNPs. i. InDels. j - m. miRNA, rRNA, snRNA, and tRNA densities, respectively. The inner lines indicate collinear blocks. Only linkages between homologous chromosomes are shown here. All densities were calculated in a 100,000 bp window.
