Figure 5From: The mitochondrial and plastid genomes of Volvox carteri: bloated molecules rich in repetitive DNAAbundance and classification of the Volvox carteri mitochondrial-DNA palindromic repeat elements. Regions of high sequence identity among the different repeat families are shaded in blue; variable sites are orange; the loop portions of the putative hairpin structures are shaded in red, and the stems (i.e., complementary bases) of these structures are located beneath the black arrows. Nuclear DNA analyses were performed using the first 75 scaffolds of the V. carteri draft nuclear genome sequence (version 1) at the DOE JGI [18].Back to article page
