Flanking distance (3′ and 5′) between predicted genes of Venturia inaequalis Vi1. Intergenic distances for all predicted genes are represented in the underlying heatmap, with the number of genes in each bin shown as a colour-coded heat map (on orthogonal projection) generated as in Saunders et al. [185]. Genes were sorted into two-dimensional bins on the basis of the lengths of flanking intergenic distances to neighbouring genes at their 5′ and 3′ ends; overlying this are scatterplots of a 423 Core Eukaryotic Genes (white dots) or b Venturia infection secretome (VIS) gene set, plus AvrLm6- and Ave1-like genes (coloured dots: dark pink = SSPs with two or more cysteines (≤500 amino acids); light pink = SSPs with one or no cysteines (≤500 amino acids); blue = peptidases; dark green = CAZymes; light green = putative cell wall-degrading enzymes (non-CAZyme); white = cell wall associated and miscellaneous proteins >500 amino acids). Note that the axes are not linear. Genes at the scaffold end were excluded from this analysis
