Location and span of convergent deletion 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 deleted in each of these populations. The vertical orange lines indicate the boundaries of the shared segment among these deletions. a Overlapping deletion on chromosome I during the adaptive recovery phase of the experiment. The ~9.5 kb region shared among four control populations (C1, C2, C4 and C5) is delineated by the vertical lines that run through the horizontal bars. b Overlapping deletion on chromosome V during the adaptive recovery phase of the experiment. The 17.3 kb region shared among the six adaptive recovery populations is delineated by the vertical lines that run through the horizontal bars. c Overlapping deletions on chromosome X during the adaptive recovery phase of the experiment. The 3.9 kb region shared among three adaptive recovery and one control population(s) is delineated by the vertical lines that run through the horizontal bars. d Overlapping deletions on chromosome X during the adaptive recovery phase of the experiment. The 0.6 kb region shared among the two adaptive recovery and one control population(s) is delineated by the vertical lines that run through the horizontal bars
