Mitochondrial genome map of Nymphaea colorata. The total length of the Nymphaea mitogenome is 617,195 bp. Genes (exons are shown as closed boxes) shown on the outside of the circle are transcribed clockwise, whereas those on the inside are transcribed counter-clockwise. Genes from the same protein complex are colored the same, introns are indicated in white boxes, and tRNAs of plastid origin are noted with a ‘-pt’ suffix. The inner circle shows the locations of direct (blue) and inverted (red) repeats (R1 to R10) with evidence for recombination activity (see Methods and Table 2). Numbers on the inner circle represent genome coordinates (Kb)
