Fig. 5From: Genome wide characterization of simple sequence repeats in watermelon genome and their application in comparative mapping and genetic diversity analysisComparative pachytene FISH analysis of cucumber (C7), melon (I) and watermelon (W2 and W9). Fourteen fosmid probes identified on cucumber chromosome C7 and melon chromosome I in a previous study (Yang et al, [12]) were used to detect their location in watermelon for verifying the results by comparative mapping. CEN indicates the putative centromere locationBack to article page
