Helitrons break the synteny between the P. ostreatus PC15 and PC9 genomes. The distribution of helitrons in the chromosomes of the dikaryotic strain N001 is shown in A (PC15 elements are shown in blue and in PC9 elements are shown in red). Truncated elements are marked with a ‘*’. An ACT [32] comparison of the squared region between PC15 and PC9 is shown in B. The lack of gene colinearity between PC9 and PC15 in the squared region of chromosomeVII is shown in C (coordinates: 1,528,715-1,479,715). In the synteny plot, coding regions are represented in purple, and inter-genic regions in pink. Arrows labeled IR represent the inverted repeats found in a 37.2 kb region duplicated in PC15 and absent in PC9 genome. Blue arrows underneath synteny plot represent predicted genes.
