Fig. 7From: Rapid Increase in frequency of gene copy-number variants during experimental evolution in Caenorhabditis elegans Location and span of convergent duplication events. The populations are indicated to the left, the chromosomal position is shown on the horizontal axis and the average haploid copy-number based on the oaCGH results from generation 208 is indicated on the right. The horizontal bars designate the regions that are duplicated in each of these populations. The vertical orange lines indicate the boundaries of the shared segment among these duplications. a Overlapping duplications on chromosome V during the adaptive recovery phase of the experiment. The 59Â kb region shared among all 12 populations is delineated by the vertical lines that run through the horizontal bars. b Overlapping duplications on chromosome II during the adaptive recovery phase of the experiment. The 94Â kb region shared among the two populations is delineated by the vertical lines that run through the horizontal bars. c Overlapping duplications on chromosome IV during the adaptive recovery phase of the experiment. The 141Â kb region shared among the two populations is delineated by the vertical lines that run through the horizontal barsBack to article page
