Figure 1

Gene map of Leptosira cpDNA. Genes (filled boxes) on the outside of the map are transcribed in a clockwise direction; those on the inside are transcribed counterclockwise. Introns are represented by open boxes and the intron ORF is denoted by a narrow, hatched box. Genes shown in yellow, cyan and magenta map to the IR, LSC and SSC regions of Mesostigma cpDNA. Genes and ORFs absent from Mesostigma cpDNA are shown in black. Brackets denote the gene clusters shared specifically with Chlorella cpDNA. tRNA genes are indicated by the one-letter amino acid code followed by the anticodon in parentheses (Me, elongator methionine; Mf, initiator methionine).
