Conserved gene order on chromosome 5 of five Ostrinia species and a close relative based on cross-hybridization of three representative BACs from O. nubilalis. (a) O. nubilalis; (b) O. furnacalis; (c) O. scapulalis; (d) O. latipennis; (e) O. palustralis; and (f) P. ruralis. Signals from BAC probes 46C12, 45L08 and 18P11, which carry orthologues EL92996, EL928535 and EL929657, are pseudocolored with magenta, green and yellow, respectively. The black bar represents B. mori chromosome 5. N, nucleolus. Scale bar, 5 μm.
