From: Paucity and preferential suppression of transgenes in late replication domains of the D. melanogaster genome

Figure 1

The underreplicated regions are enriched in suppressed transgenes. Examples of eye with strong (A), moderate (B) and weak (C) suppression of mini-white. (D) Eye color in wild type fly. (E) Distribution of transgenes from Selected set with different suppression of mini-white marker gene in URs, the flank regions and the genome. Color coding is explained at the bottom of the graph. The proportion of suppressed transgenes is 3.6 times higher in URs than in flanks (P < 7.6E-10). (F) Distribution of transgenes with different level of mini-white suppression indicates that URs contain higher proportion of inserts with strong suppression. Probability to have such trend by chance is 3.7E-15.
