Left: Effect of resolution on distance from median to Rhazya, coffee and grape. From top to bottom, with decreasing resolution, histograms for the three species overlap increasingly, blurring the gene order conservatism of coffee and grape versus the extensive rearrangement propensity of Rhazya. Right: Effect of resolution on numbers of translocations and inversions necessary to transform median to Rhazya, coffee and grape. Dotted line: translocations. Unbroken line: reversals. Upper and lower lines in each colour represent the maximum and minimum number found when prioritizing or delaying the corresponding operation versus the other operation. Fusions and fissions (not shown) are found at low, comparable, levels except for coffee which shows 5-10 fusions only, with no trend according to resolution
