Extended Data Fig. 2: Recombination effects of inversion heterozygotes.
From: Chromosomal inversion polymorphisms shape the genomic landscape of deer mice
(a) Recombination rates for inversion versus non-inversion regions from lab-born F2 hybrids. Recombination rates for inversion regions are measured in inversion heterozygotes only; rates for non-inversion regions include all lab-born F2 hybrids. Boxes indicate upper and lower quartiles; center line represents median; whiskers extend to minimum and maximum values within 1.5x interquartile range. Points for inversion regions represent inversions (n = 15); points for non-inversion regions represent chromosomes (excluding inversion regions) (n = 23). Recombination rate for inversion regions = 0.01 ± 0.03; non-inversion regions = 0.80 ± 0.34 (mean ± sd). (b) Recombination rates for inversion regions by inversion size in megabases. Linear fit between inversion length and recombination rate shown as red line (F-statistic on 1 and 13 degrees of freedom, p > 0.05).
